Toei Bus Route 60

[bill937ca]

For those interested in the Faller/Tomytec roadway system here is the full video of Toei bus route 60 in Tokyo. It runs from Ikebukuro Station East Exit to Ueno Station and appears to stay outside the Yamanote line.  There is another connection with the Yamanote line at Otsuka (where the Toden Arakawa line goes under the Yamanote line.)  Route 60 is based at Otsuka depot which appears to be an old carbarn.

 

 

I find these buses really zip along because the sidewalk fences prevent pedestrians from crossing the street (and cars from going up on the sidewalk on these streets).

 

You can find a Toei route map here.
