Meguro Line tracks run parallel with the Tōyoko Line between Den-en-chōfu and Hiyoshi stations (inside tracks - Meguro Line, outside tracks - Tōyoko Line)

The Meguro Line (目黒線, Tōkyū-Meguro-sen) is a railway line operated by Japanese private railway company Tokyu Corporation. As a railway line, the name is for the section between Meguro and Den-en-chōfu in southwest Tokyo, but nearly all trains run to Hiyoshi on a quad-tracked section of the Tōyoko Line in Yokohama, Kanagawa. Additionally, the Meguro line interoperates with the Tokyo Metro Namboku Line and Toei Mita Line beyond Meguro.

History

[edit]

  • 1924, June 1: Koyama becomes Musashi-Koyama.[1]
  • 1926, January 1: Chōfu and Tamagawa stations are renamed to Den-en-Chōfu and Maruko-Tamagawa stations respectively.[1]
  • 1928, August 1: Nishi-Koyama station opens.

    • June 27: Ōokayama station moves underground.
    • July 27: Meguro station moves underground.
  • 1999, October 10: Fudōmae station is elevated.
  • 2000:
