Tokyu Setagaya Line Streetcar near Wakabayashi Station

I have uploaded some Toden Arakawa line pictures. Arakawa line is the only survivor of the old Toden streetcar network.

 

There were also streetcar networks of private railroad companies. And the only survivor of them runs in Setagaya, a residential area in southwest of Tokyo. It is Tokyu Setagaya Line.

 

The two-car-train looks new and modern. Tokyu have replaced the old trains during these ten years.

 

As you see in this picture, the train runs on an exclusive track. It should be one of the reasons why the line survived.
