Kama-Kama short-circuit line mark

Japanese Page

Very interesting news and material were offered from Mr. Mahboh..seeing my page. It was such a matter to have understood it was a start of a complex problem to throw a shadow out slightly as of it divided, and it was examined what situation "Anamori line" was immediately after the end of the war, too.

Here, I want to make it to the continuation one project of considering according to the gotten material, moving the section to "Forward planning" next, and advancing consideration further.

First of all, the description of the material that is reeled and gotten from Mr. Mahboh is selected and recorded leaving it as much as possible in the form of the state as it is. The map and photographs on this page to be making and taking a picture of Mr. Mahboh of all. When the photograph is clicked, the photograph of former size is displayed in another window. The number corresponds to the number in the map.

Keihin Tohoku Line and Tokyu Ikegami Line and the Tamagawa line connect JR Kamata Station at the station located in the south end in Tokyo 23 district. Keihin Kyuko line on the other hand is made it to move to the east side at once, not to adhere to the JR line even of Yokohama as it is, and to draw close ..do not part.., runs, and exists from JR Kamata ..Keikyu-Kamata Station.. Station in the place where the degree parts at 10 minutes on foot though is in the west of the JR line only Shinagawa Station of the first train. The airport line that had been postponed here to the Haneda district was postponed in the Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) terminal recently, and the access became convenient.

It knew the aerophotograph of which the U.S. Air Force took a picture on the site of "Geographical Survey Institute" immediately after the end of the war recently and the photograph that the geography academy had taken recently had been opened to the public. There was the one that the vicinity of Kamata was taken in that, too and a mysterious thing was found there. There is a railway track where these two stations are connected.

This photograph is terrible.
Work name: USA10kKT and district: Kawasaki and course: M452-A and number: 68
Work name: USA10kKT and district: Kawasaki and course: M372 and number: 8
Anyway, please see. A considerably big yard is gained between Keihin Kamata and Japanese National Railways Kamata, and even the wagon that stops there can be seen. In addition, it is an image that the interest like the disused line mark etc. that cannot be missed by the Tokyu relation is not exhausted.

---Then, Mr. Mahboh was to see "Haneda　Airport station mark" on this page of me and to have had knowledge about circumstances immediately after the end of the war reeling. ---

The same as the bus that continues from the 1st Keihin national road (the 15th in national road line) to the Kamata east exit very much when the railway track is applied to a geography today. And, the national road is placed between the photograph, there is a place like the accumulation place on the opposite side of Keikyu-Kamata Station, and be (It is facilities in the district now) there like the place with the fresh produce marts in old times. It went to the site and the photograph was taken though it was thought that there was little mark where it was left, too, when now came.

---

1: It is a place with the freight station in the old times though it is an Ota ward office now. It connects with nearby soon about here according to the bus.

2: The place where the bus stops now is from an entrance to the exit   here wanting the Keikyu-Kamata district the same as the bus, and the stop according to the bus only for getting off. It is a translation connected with the national road this ahead. By the way, it is a one-way road from the other side.

3: There is a slow curve in the vicinity to which it went from an intersection   a little while ago where the Keikyu-Kamata district is wanted by about 100m from this side of the curve according to the bus. A railway track at that time might have arrived drawing the curve here larger and going side by side with conserved line (current JR line) Kamata Station if it saw from the aerophotograph.

4: The Keikyu-Kamata district is wanted from a loose curve and it   becomes straight really ahead of that. This might be the ideal at that time if it lays track because most will have been burnt ruins.

5:   Here is wanting the Keikyu district from the Kamata Station front as shown in the starting place of the bus there. There is going on the way across the river, and the lash-up is done considerably. It is winding more as for the road excluding this. Because it doesn't seem to have opened the degree now, and the road that prints between fields and comes off develops and only it is sure to be done, be able Kamata at that time might be natural though was also the age with the film studio. It is more unnatural oppositely that a road a little while ago is too a straight line.

6: The bus route bumps to the Keikyu line,   two roads intersect immediately before there is a railroad crossing in the Keikyu line, and the road that came from the ward office side ends here. And, the store has been built in the other side of the railroad crossing and this road extension. It is interesting that the house in the road extension with is width of the road.

7: Land sells and is not built in parallel to the road why like being diagonal though is   the store. Are not you because this is because an old railway track intersects with a road here, and the land is sold like being diagonal of it?

8: Row of the row of the house of the house in land of disposal there when extending   well in the opponent and No.15 in the national road of the store. However, I think that the width says like a road really a little while ago.

9: Ota industrial plaza (PIO) "Ota industrial plaza (PIO)" has been built in the mark that was the fresh produce mart in   old times.

10: Ota industrial plaza (PIO) There is an alley that leads to bicycle-parking space when it sees between a row of the house in   photograph 8 and industrial plaza of photograph 9 in Ota.

Railway track..construct..bank..the..alley..policeman..reflect..place..site..sideward..along..for a moment..tree..grow thick..near..continue.  The railway track might have been in the place where the other side and the house in the wall had built. The other side is from a part to rising more than here by 1 step, and feeling in the photograph even if it banks it when the railway track is really constructed though it is not understood that is the alley.

12: And, the overhead wiring comes into view when going to bicycle-parking space.

13: This alley is connected with the road the railway track sideward here.

14: This photograph is taking of the alley of 13 from the opposite as for the site where a white building has built . This white building perhaps might ..site that had built.. have gone.

15: It is a road along the airport line as for the site where a white building has built . It is unnatural that it suddenly leaves this vicinity only the national road side though it comes considerably from the other side for a long time following along the railway track when taking ones chance so. When the U.S. military took this each bypath, and it returned it, it is likely to have done with general land though it had connected in old times.

16: Because the train had just passed each other in this vicinity, it took it though it was a superfluity for a moment that the train passed each other. I on the site was looking feeling admiration though it was likely to see in the photograph of passing each other without Cawatets either. In the line where it faces the airport from Keikyu-Kamata Station, even the vicinity in which a white building exists in photograph 14 is a single track. Therefore, the up train that goes to Kamata in this side until the down train that goes to the airport in the interior comes to the double-track line part doesn't advance it. Then, the point changes at once, and the up train advances slowly when thinking that the down train passed though it reduces speed once in the vicinity of the railroad crossing seen in photograph 15. I think that the blur person understands the speed of both is different. If making in the vicinity of Keikyu-Kamata to elevated to which this is advanced now advances, it is not possible do disappear and to know.

---

It is Mr. Mahboh's article above. crossing into the 15th national roads goes up once while the up train arrives after the down train starts from Kamata Station to tell the truth though it is a matter of passing each other of the train. The arrangement of the breaker sensor can be said it is strange with wiring seeming abnormally fast compared with another railway on the other hand the timing of the opening to traffic when the movement of the point in a single track section is seen though it is possible to think the interception time of crossing into is chopped like the purpose. crossing into the 15th national roads was the 1st moment kind, had the crossing into person, and the breaker was raised and lowered ahead by hand power.

Anyway, it must be a problem for the railway, and solidification is fixed gutter food way of the railway in the level crossing of this single track section and the national road for the road.

However, the ambush lurked here. It is a line of a basic plan concerning the maintenance of transport links that assume the new establishment of the short-circuited route the Keihin Electric Express Railway Co., Ltd. airport line and Tokyo Electric Express Railway, Ltd. Mekama line and center on the rapid-transit railway in the transportation policy council report No.18 and Tokyo metropolitan area January 27, 2000(report) taken up. Does this ground really dream a new line of the future though the disused line mark that reeled and Mr. Mahboh traced is a railway track mark where the compulsion accommodation was done so that the U.S.Army may maintain the Haneda airport?The item name of the above-mentioned report was compressed and title "Kama-kama short-circuit line" on this page was named without permission. The way of being of this "Unfinished line of the future"Kama-kama short-circuit line is a forward planning there It thinks in "The full of troubles future of Kama-Kama line".

Noge line mark

Japanese Page

From seeing my pageA curve road interesting when the map in the vicinity of the Noge was seen: Wasn't a long and slender site (land that had been placed between two thin roads that penetrated through the center from between Miyakawa-cho 1 and 2 chome to the Noge 1 chome) where the slow curve was diagonally drawn between Hinodecho and Sakuragicho land that had been secured for the route for the Shonan electric railway report of Toyoko line?Though it is a complete guess. I got mail. It certainly cuts in the Ooka-gawa river when studying the map and the railway track that has run cuts the left this side of Hinodecho and the dogleg. Existence of thin land where width of elevated line where it is proven was kept facing to Sakuragicho Station straight willingly as it is originally natural. Then, this unfinished line decided to be named "Noge line" selfishly and to walk. The number of the text corresponds to the number in the map. 1: The Hinodecho district is wanted more than the left side and the Koganecho district of guard along. The elevated line cuts the left the dogleg. The road goes straight.

2: The Koganecho district is wanted from Hinodecho to the Ooka-gawa river. The train turns round the dogleg and it ..banks of a river.. cruises.

3: Curve of road from which elevated line deviated to the left. This example is work of imagining the railway structure that might be made from seeing the service road along a lot of "Disused line mark" that exists in the example or no "Unfinished line" it, and "Unfinished line". The map is for that, and it should be somewhere and there be accurate rapidity walking of me with the head. And, the railway structure that will be made will be vividly seen in the near future, and it is necessary to overlap with the building of the reality.

4: The Sakuragicho district is wanted from millionaire bridge west Ts that the Yokohama Ekinegishi road intersects with the Ooka-gawa river. There is a road after it descends once.

5: Site section along Yokohama Ekinegishi road. There is a bus stop in front of Hinodecho Station. "Mitsuwa grill" and the next building just correspond to the site mark. This width is 16 steps. It is unexpectedly narrow. It was 16 steps as which the elevated line of Keikyu under was the same.

6: Five difference road in the Miyakawa-cho is wanted and the Sakuragicho district is wanted. Because the site in this side is a parking lot, the building of the site section is understood well. A snack and next building is width of the site. Be able my do listen to of the story of this site to managing the craft company in this vicinity. It is said that the owner was Japanese National Railways though this site was used according to it to lay track certainly. I hear that it borrows from Japanese National Railways and the site was open of the company though it was what was since prewar days. It is said that the site was used as leased land not the vacant lot etc. enclosed with the hedge but where.
  I hear that it was about at 1955 to be sold. I hear that the structure made of concrete whether what it is a tube or to pass communication line (?) was buried under this site beforehand to use it when laying track. A lot of various buildings such as the house, the drinking house, shops, and the back-street factories have been overcrowded in this vicinity now though there are some feelings in outskirts by the heartland of Yokohama.

7: The Noge town wants the Sakuragicho district. It is a big building in the front. Station building in Sakuragicho. It slowly curves to the left and the tangent arc to Sakuragicho Station is drawn.

8: Bar in railway track site in Miyakawa-cho. The atmosphere of feeling of the 1955's remains as it is and it is good. It looks like the atmosphere of the place where I was born and grow up well and wherever you like around here in Yokohama. Eyes go to such a building inadvertently.

9: The direction that comes off from the Noge town to No.16 in the national road is hoped for. When a slow curve is extended, it connects with Sakuragicho Station. No.16 was wide, and the vicinity of Sakuragicho Station accomplished making to a whale of an by the redevelopment. The mark cannot be seen previously in the future.

10: Position that comes off to No.16 in national road. There is a signboard of Yoshinoya.

11: The Hinodecho district is wanted from the position that comes off to No.16 in the national road.

The direction of 16 in the national road is wanted from the same position as 12:11. Quite different though it is the same position view.

Omori Station mark

Japanese Page

---

  Keihin Electric Railways opened rokugo-bashi station-Omori station interval February 1, 1901.
  It opens between Yahata and Shinagawa on May 8, 1904. (Correspond to Omori-kaigan-of present north Shinagawa. )
  "Yahata" is changed into "Coast" before and after this Shinagawa extension (about 1904-05 and date uncertainty. )Moreover, after extending Shinagawa, the railway track in the Omori district has renewed the divergence from rokugo district to the divergence from the Shinagawa person. The map shows the state at the time of this in the illustration of the ordnance survey assumed to be a measurement in 1906.

  "Omori station" station had the loop-line that touched a present JR Omori Station east exit, and set up the garage in this loop-line. It is exactly thought to be this arrangement of loop-line + garage that the purpose of the Omori extension is in the conserve line report, and can meet the wave motion demand of worshipper for Kawasaki-Daishi and Anamori-inari flexibly.

  Two cars of the left are connected with the photograph assumed to have been taken a picture in the spring of 1901 though four cars fall on the loop-line, and the vehicle in the back seems to be being pulled by the accompanying car by the former electric motor coach. It is not possible to confirm it though it is thought that two cars of the right hand interior are also similar. It might be a guest of the cherry blossoms seeing of the saint river beach because it is spring. It is possible that the accompanying car is temporarily additionally connected if it is a loop-line, and the train is started one after another.

  Still, this loop-line mark clearly restricts the mark to the division of the Omori Station east exit. This loop-line mark has clearly come to the map where garrisoned circle prohibition district in the Omori Station east exit is shown. The upper side of the map becomes a Keikyu Omori-kaigan district.

  A road in which it curves to forward and the left hand and a thin right road that goes straight are the orbit marks before.

  Road where road curves to forward and left hand. It greatly curves to the right ahead of this.

  Things in the vicinity of Omori become tiles and it is set in the pavement on the road where Omori-kaigan Station is connected with JR Omori Station. There is a picture of the train that had run on this road in that before.

  The east exit of JR Omori Station and the vicinity of the point of the loop are the taxis of waiting for a customer and rows of an illegal garrisoned circle. The alley in the vicinity of the center of the screen is a place where the loop-line was returned. The building has been built at the position with the garage in the loop-line.

Haneda Airport station mark

Japanese Page

  There was a station of Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) before. The report function with the airport was contrarily none at all with the name of Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) station.

It is sky bridge and old Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) station site = parking lot.

Big map

Old Haneda Airport station
The Haneda Airport station faced the bank of "Ebitori-gawa" river. It is an airport report bus that stops around the station.

  A present airport line was called Anamori line before, and was a route for the visit to a shrine of Anamori-inari. The terminal was called Anamori.   The Haneda airport is requisitioned by the occupation army on September 24, 1945, will be enhanced, and the god of harvest company move. It stops between the god of harvest bridge and Anamori at this time.
  The going up line of Anamori line is requisitioned at the same time, and is done and it connects it with conserve Sengamaden'eki the connection on March 6, 1946 to 1067mm. It was used for the cargo shipment.
I would like seeing it because do the aerophotograph of the appearance at this time and it exists in ..taking a picture.. Kama-Kama short-circuit line mark.
  The requisition of Anamori line is released on October 31, 1952 and it restores it to the double-track line. The iron bridge beyond of "Ebitori-gawa" river becomes in the site in the airport and is abolished though was restored between the god of harvest bridge and Anamori in the stop section at this time. The god of harvest bridge till then was renamed to Anamori-inari. The Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) station was installed at the position of this side of "Ebitori-gawa" river along with the restoration. The iron bridge mark that exceeded "Ebitori-gawa" river at the previous state of Eki for a while and expanded to Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) remained as it was.

  The title is changed into the airport line because of the hole Mamoru line on November 1, 1963.
  The Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) riding where it disappears will become full-scale, and it abolishes between Anamori-inari and Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) in January, 1991 if it is talked many times. Construction of making to the underground was started. The first stage part of the construction of making to the underground on April 1, 1993 A business opens among "Anamori-inari-Haneda". The humanity bridge in the iron bridge mark that had hung to "Ebitori-gawa" river before at this time "Sky bridge" was offered. This bridge seems to imitate the railway bridge before.

  Orbit Shiat between Anamori-inari and Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) can be sold to the private organization. The Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) station before becomes a parking lot, and the guide board to present Haneda Station stands. The photograph in the bridge above is the sky bridge. The delta roof seen in the other side of the side is present Haneda Station.
  The airport line is extended to the Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) terminal on November 18, 1998. Therefore, present "Haneda Station" will be renamed to "Sky bridge station" for the mis-multiplication prevention.

Relief for which vehicle of Anamori line opening this time in Haneda Station premises is carved

  The loop-line in the vicinity of the Tokyo International Airport(Haneda) station mark (old   god of harvest bridge station) is drawn in the map of the measurement in 1906.
  One item of Anamori line is spared to the history of Ota Ward compiled in the 1945's and it explains as follows.

(2) The Keihin Anamori line   main line was ..".. line of 3.8 kilometers in the southeast from Keihin Kamata from which it reached Anamori through each station in Kojiya, Ohtorii, and the god of harvest bridge. It opened to Anamori on March 31, 1923 on June 28, 1902 though it opened to the god of harvest bridge. The factory came to built in and the vicinity in in the resident in the Haneda district and those who visited a shrine in Anamori-inari as for the station user who did not have the station either, the airport in Haneda was completed in old times, and the user got quite a lot of stations built with. It is abolished, and the god of harvest bridge station is assumed to be a terminal between the god of harvest bridge station and Anamori station now. It is management of Keihin Electric Express Railway Co., Ltd.. "

  The description that sticks to the station is interesting. Moreover, this might be a misprint of "31 February, 1923" though the opening to traffic to Anamori is assumed to be "31 March, 1923". It seems that it made a mistake in a manuscript hand-written of columnar writing when type is set.

Soji-ji Temple Station mark and coast electric railway

  Soji-ji Temple Station was between Tsurumi and Kagetsuen-mae.
  It descends from elevated of Keikyu-Tsurumi now It becomes near where it faces under elevated of the JR Tsurumi Line of the downward slope.
  It was a coast electric railway to have opened a business Fuji Electric Co., Ltd. June 5, 1925   Soji-ji Temple-ago. The track gage is irregular of same 1372m/m as a Keihin electric railway at that time. The old model car of the tram type of the Keihin electric railway was appropriated in a virtual branch line. The line that becomes the following Kawasaki streetcar is extended to Kawasaki-Daishi station of Daishi line of Keihin electric railway ahead on October 16. It rode Keihin Kawasaki via the saint line.
  It became abolition in November, 1937 though coast Den that management was not satisfactory was constructed the Tsurumi Rinko railway in the shape that almost ran side by side with this coast Den, and was absorbed to the Tsurumi Rinko railway, and became a Tsurumi Rinko railway orbit line (It is said that it had been called the hung Rin train).
  "Rinko Tsurumi river bridge" that hangs in a present Tsurumi river is a remaining influences of the bridge in this orbit line.

  Shonan Electric Railways established a temporary station in the position of present Keikyu-Tomioka Station as "Tomioka seaside resort temporary station" in the summer of 1932. After potentate "Kajima Genzaemon" of local negotiates with the Shonan electric railway, it will continue as permanent station "Shonan Tomioka".

  Ground in Tomioka came to locate a lot of factories related to arms near the Yokosuka naval port might. The U.S.Army makes an air raid aiming at the armaments factory in the vicinity of Tomioka Station on the World War II end June 10, 1945. The train that had been stopped at the station with the air alert made the passenger take shelter to guard under the station, and the train had saved it in the tunnel. All people who took shelter in guard as a result and resident in the vicinity of the station completely destroyed the sacrifice and the station of the air raid, and did the complete destruction burning down by 71 households of the vicinity in the house.

  The naval forces Yokohama Achou corps site in the Bird's sea hill (kutsumo) came for the U.S.Army to be stationed, and Tomioka Station was installed on this ground (Tomioka 2669 and vicinity of present bird Mi tomb bus stop) by the request of the U.S.Army on October 1, 1945 after the war. This place becomes Sugita inclined to by about 0.9 kilos it from present Keikyu-Tomioka Station.

  A temporary station in Tomioka that received the occupation release and existed on the Chokai hill was removed, and returned to the place at an old station (present place) in September, 1951.

  "Tomioka youth's house   books part" local issue (issue on June 30, 1967) It is recorded in "Tomioka extraction magazine" as "Tomioka temporary station" and "Return of old Tomioka Station".
