Although the line is connected to the Tobu Tojo Line via the Chichibu Railway, it operates as an independent line. It uses the TSP-type ATS (Automatic Train Stop) system for train protection.[/p][p]This DLC features the upbound section (toward Asakusa) of the TOBU SKYTREE Line, covering the 29.7 km stretch from Kita-kasukabe Station to Kita-senju Station. The journey takes you through residential and commercial areas, then onto an elevated section that includes the longest quadruple-track section operated by any private railway in Japan. Along the way, enjoy distant views of the TOKYO SKYTREE and the impressive Arakawa River bridge before arriving at Kita-senju Station. Experience the vivid transition in scenery as you travel from the suburbs into the heart of the city.[/p][p]※This simulation reproduces the 2022 operating timetable.[/p][p][/p][p]■Tobu Tojo Line[/p][p]The Tobu Tojo Line is a 75 km railway that runs from Ikebukuro Station in Toshima Ward, Tokyo, to Yorii Station in Yorii Town, Osato District, Saitama Prefecture, near the Chichibu region. Its official name is the “Tojo Main Line,” but it is commonly referred to as the “Tojo Line.” As a major commuter route starting from Ikebukuro, the line plays a key role in supporting heavy passenger traffic, particularly for work and school commutes. Although the Tobu Skytree Line is physically connected to the Tobu Tojo Line via the Chichibu Railway, it operates as an independent service system. It is equipped with the T-DATC (Tobu-type Automatic Train Control) safety system.[/p][p]This DLC features the upbound section (toward Ikebukuro) of the Tojo Line, covering the 17.8 km stretch between Shiki Station and Ikebukuro Station. The Tojo Line offers multiple types of train services, and in this DLC, you can choose from four different train types. Enjoy the dynamic change in scenery—from peaceful suburban neighborhoods to the dense urban landscape of central Ikebukuro—as you experience the distinctive character of the Tojo Line.[/p][p]※This simulation reproduces the 2022 operating timetable.
