【儚い…】特急あずさに乗って総武線の朝陽を拝むのが好きだ。日本はこんなにも美しいのか。

November. A certain Saturday. I was on a limited express train leaving Chiba Station at 6:30 in the morning . Anyway, I thought it was a nice morning. This video is brought to you by “Shi Ma”. Even though I wasn’t going to Mt. Fuji or Minami Otari,

I ended up leaving my house at 5 a.m. to catch this express train. Prepare for departure. Please wait for a while until the door opens. As expected from a city with a population of 900,000. There were so many people, even at 6:30 in the morning…

While I was saying this, what I saw from earlier on was only inorganic things. That is a valuable monorail, of which there are only two examples in Japan. BB base? I thought it was different. Well, this is the train I’ll be riding today. E353 series.

The designer is Ken Okuyama, who designed Ferrari and the E6 series. Anyway, it’s cool. Take the Fuji Expressway 3 bound for Lake Kawaguchi. Of all the JR East limited express trains, this is my favorite. Even though I love trains, this is the first time this train has appeared on this channel.

The overall atmosphere within the company may be similar to the E657 series and the Joban Line Limited Express. There’s no one in car 2. The car I ride is number 3. Car number 3? That’s right, Chiba Station doesn’t have a departure melody.

Before I knew it, it was time for the train to leave the station. What I like about this train is the color of the seats. This blue color is really beautiful. As for how much I like it, I have a pencil case made of this seat fabric.

I think I bought it at J-Trek. We must not forget that this is Chiba Prefecture. This train has a total of 12 cars. Cars 1 to 3 are bound for Kawaguchiko, which connects directly to the Fujikyuko Line. The car I’m driving is number 3.

Cars 4 to 12 are bound for Matsumoto, which connects directly to the Chuo Line and Shinonoi Line. This is the connecting part. Wow, it’s a really cool space. I love the long corridors of railroad cars. It’s filled with a man’s romance. It kind of looks like a robot and it’s cool.

This is normally the driver’s cabin, but you can pass through it when connecting. So I took a closer look at the window inside the driver’s cabin. The driver’s cab is located high up. It seems to increase safety. The ridership rate from Chiba Station is… 20%…No, it’s about 10%. It’s rattling.

Probably a lot of passengers will board from Shinjuku. On-board sales will also begin in Shinjuku. This limited express Azusa spent the night at this Makuhari Rolling Stock Center. Many express trains are stopped. The Keiyo Line runs on that side, the sea side. Is this Keiyo road? Passing Makuharihongo Station.

The train depot is stupid. It’s a nice morning. If you don’t take this train, which departs at 6:30 a.m., you won’t be able to take a train trip like this. We bid farewell to the Keisei Line here. Huh? This train is the Azusa Limited Express that leaves from Shinjuku Station, right?

Why is it in Chiba Prefecture? I’m sure many people think so. In fact, there is the limited express Azusa and Fuji Kaiyu, which depart from and arrive at Chiba Station only once a day. That is this train. We will arrive at Funabashi soon. After Funabashi, the train stops at Kinshicho.

There aren’t many express trains that stop at Funabashi. The Narita Express, which runs on this Sobu line, passes by as usual. I’m sure there are several other limited express trains heading towards Oso that will also stop there. There are really only a few express trains that stop here. However,

For some reason, the express train bound for Nagano instead of Chiba stops here. Moreover, this train runs every day. These trains are Limited Express Azusa 3 bound for Matsumoto and Fuji Express 3 bound for Kawaguchiko. The next stop will be Kinshicho. Holiday outing pass. This is the ticket I will be using today.

What…why don’t you wake up at 5 a.m. and go to Nagano? I agree too. wait a minute. Look here. This is a digital ticket for a holiday outing pass. With paper tickets, you can ride the Shinkansen and Kururi Line. However, you cannot ride the Suica version.

Most of the seats are made from the E657 series. We will soon pass Ichikawa Station. I thought the Sobu Rapid Line was waiting for the express to pass, but there was no one there. It’s a mystery why this express train runs around 6:30. After passing Ichikawa Station, you will cross the Edogawa River.

Looking at this scenery, I felt like I understood the reason for being alive. Due to the high number of suicides, we passed through Shin-Koiwa Station, the only station on the Sobu Rapid Line that has a platform door. Let’s take a look at the toilet. It’s extremely spacious.

There is also a diaper changing area, so you can feel safe even if you are bringing children. After passing Shinkoiwa, you will cross the river again. Nakagawa and Arakawa. That’s what I thought when I saw this scene. I’m so jealous. This train runs at the same time every day.

Does that mean it is active as a commuter liner on weekdays? If I remember correctly, I took this express train the year before last or last year. At that time, there were certainly a lot of people on board who were probably going to work at Shinjuku Station wearing suits.

The train will soon stop at Kinshicho. Green cars have been introduced on the Sobu Rapid Line, but it’s more comfortable to ride this way. Green cars on local trains have unreserved seats, so you may not be able to sit in them. Ah, the Tobu Kameido Line.

I also met Tobu Railway at Funabashi Station. We will meet Tobu Railway in the next video. There are so many Narita Express trains running. So I arrived at Kinshicho Station. And depart immediately. This train is going to Shinjuku Station from now on, but what kind of route will it take?

Of course I won’t go underground. The two lines in the back are the Sobu Rapid Line. Then we transferred to the Sobu local line. Interestingly, from now on, we will be traveling on the Sobu local line. Don’t you think it makes no sense? Ah, that’s a real BB bass.

Although it is a tour train, you can bring your bicycle on the train. Would you like to ride it and ride your own bicycle through the land of Chiba? This is the concept. I finally passed Ryogoku Station. Sumida River. Do you know what’s interesting about this?

For example, the limited express Hitachi runs on the Joban local line. Limited Express Azusa runs on the Yokohama Line. The 373 series is coming to Tokyo Station… Well, that’s what I think of as an unusual train. This is Asakusabashi Station. Many stations on the Sobu Kanko Line have platform doors.

If you look out the train window to the left or right, you’ll see lots of multi-tenant buildings. You can’t take your time to observe the train windows around here unless you take the Azusa Limited Express. We soon arrived at Akihabara station. This area is a very congested area and is a commuter line.

Sit in the comfortable reclining seats of the new limited express train and take in the sights of the super metropolis. I think this is a seriously luxurious express train. Passing Akihabara Station. By the way, there is another train called “Shinjuku Sazanami” that runs on weekends and holidays.

It also runs on the Sobu Local Line and stops at Akihabara Station. That train has a short formation. If you don’t like mornings, you can ride the Shinjuku Sazanami. Ochanomizu Station came into view. so beautiful. A river runs in the middle of a big city, and a railway runs alongside it.

I think it’s a truly luxurious and beautiful urban landscape. At this point, the train switches from the Chuo local line to the rapid line. The slow driving ends here.

If there were no railways around here and no buildings around, I feel that the scenery would be the same as the Tadami Line or the Ban’etsu West Line. However, the river that runs next to this Chuo Line was once the moat of Edo Castle. Now it’s Kanda River.

That’s rare around here. There’s a tunnel. Is the name Gosho Tunnel correct? It must have been a very valuable tunnel. The oldest tunnel dates back to around 1894. We finally arrived at Shinjuku. About 50 minutes from Chiba Station?

I think there are quite a few people who commute from Chiba Station to Shinjuku Station. I think it’s 100 times easier to ride Chiba Azusa than to take a local train’s green car and change trains at Kinshicho . What do you think?

People whose transportation expenses are paid by their company can enjoy such a comfortable commute just by adding the 760 yen express fare. Moreover, it costs about the same as the green car of a local train. If I lived in Chiba, I might ride it by chance.

I think it would be a good idea to put up a lot of posters promoting the Azusa Limited Express ride at Chiba Station. Green cars on the Sobu Line have people standing in the aisles during rush hours. I think the demand for seated service for commuters on the Sobu Line is very high.

And since they are commuters, it is unlikely that anyone will go beyond Shinjuku to the Matsumoto area. I don’t think the many foreigners in front of me will have any trouble finding a seat. amazing…. This is the true power of Limited Express Azusa/Fuji Kaiyu.

Last time I rode, all seats from Shinjuku onwards were full. And it’s on a weekday. And today, all seats are full. Maybe, but I think this is the busiest express train in eastern Japan. There are also people standing in the aisle.

We departed on time from Shinjuku Station, the busiest station in the world. The morning sun was shining on the buildings in Kabukicho. I was overwhelmed by its power and beauty. This beautiful building with broken glass is the Tokyu Building. Apparently there are super luxury hotels that cost 500,000 yen per night.

Farewell to the Yamanote Line and Saikyo Line. This train from Chiba will now head towards Nagano and Lake Kawaguchi. The next stop is Tachikawa. Passing through Nakano Station etc. on the way. As I passed Mitaka Station, a suburban scene spread out. What you can see in the distance is Tanashi Tower.

My relatives live over there and I’ve been there a few times. I can’t climb it. But they could have operated the elevators that went up and down the tower. I don’t know if they’re doing it now. Passing through Nishi-Kokubunji Station.

The Musashino Line, which parted ways at Nishi-Funabashi Station, resumed after a long absence. So I arrived at Tachikawa station. It felt like a suburb until the middle of the day, but then it suddenly became a city. It seems like a lot of people are coming from here as well.

By the way, the Chuo East Line will be suspended from now on. Wheels were spinning between Nirasaki and Kobuchizawa… It’s Mt. Fuji. It looks like this train will be going all the way to the foot of Fuji from now on. Actually, I’ve never ridden the Fujikyuko line.

There were many people standing on the deck as well. The atmosphere inside the train was like that of the Saikyo Line. So, 1 hour and 23 minutes from Chiba Station, I arrived at Hachioji Station. It was crazy. There really wasn’t a single Japanese person there. It feels like I’m in a foreign country.

The next train to transfer to is the Hachiko Line. Now I’m heading towards Takasaki. This is a local train trip. Hachiko Line is a line that connects Hachioji and Takasaki. This train runs directly to the Kawagoe Line. To head towards Takasaki, you will need to change trains at Komarigawa Station on the way.

Next time, we will ride the Kiha 110, JR East’s only diesel train in the Kanto region. Thank you for your viewing. I would be happy if you could subscribe to the channel and give the video a high rating.

朝6時38分に千葉駅を出発する「特急あずさ･富士回游」に乗車。千葉駅から八王子駅までの様子をお届け。
E353系の車内から眺める朝日はとても美しかった。
E353系は基本的に中央線や篠ノ井線の特急だが、1日に1往復だけ総武線の千葉駅まで来る電車がある。
しかも面白いことに、この電車は錦糸町駅から御茶ノ水駅までは総武緩行線を走行する。特急電車とは縁のない路線にE353系が走ってることが面白い。
秋葉原駅をこの快適な特急電車で通過するのは爽快だった。
