From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Negishi Line (根岸線, Negishi-sen^?) is a rail segment between Yokohama and Ōfuna stations operated by the East Japan Railway Company, connecting crucial sightseeing spots in Yokohama. Freight trains also run on this line, and it is essential for the southern Keihin region.

The Negishi Line does not exist as an independent service, as all passenger trains go far beyond Yokohama Station. The majority of these trains go beyond Yokohama, towards Kamata and Omiya, as the Keihin-Tōhoku Line—Negishi Line. And a minority of the trains go beyond Yokohama, towards Hachioji, as the Yokohama Line.

For this reason, the "Negishi Line" is considered part of the Keihin-Tōhoku Line—Negishi Line (京浜東北線・根岸線, Keihin Tōhoku-sen—Negishi-sen^?) and is sometimes called Keihin-Tōhoku Line (京浜東北線, Keihin Tōhoku-sen^?).
