While there are multiple railway lines connecting Tokyo and Omiya, which boast a large number of users, only JR lines directly link them.
Most routes, such as Tokyo-Yokohama or Kyoto-Osaka-Kobe-Himeji, have a network of private railway lines in addition to JR lines, but the Tokyo-Omiya route is almost entirely monopolized by JR.
Why is this? This time, let's unravel the reasons, along with their history.

~About Kotsuazu Railway Channel~
Kotsuazu Railway Channel is a channel that delves into railways from various angles, focusing on metropolitan railways, including routes, rolling stock, and train types.

I've loved railways, especially commuter trains, for over 10 years, and from there, I've created various videos, which have grown to their current size thanks to your support.

The channel owner's hobbies include railways and games. While not a professional gamer, I have achieved top ranks in games, and now I dedicate that passion to this channel. I would be happy if you subscribed.
