Utsunomiya Line is the nickname for trains operating on the 163.3 km long section of the Tohoku Line (between Tokyo Station and Morioka Station) between Tokyo Station and Kuroiso Station. The Utsunomiya Line has been in use since March 10, 1990, at the suggestion of the local governments along the line. In the past, many express and sleeper trains headed for Tohoku and Hokkaido used to run on the line, but now regular and rapid trains make up the majority of the schedule.Currently, the train lines are separated at Utsunomiya Station, with the Ueno Tokyo Line and Shonan Shinjuku Line providing commuter and school transportation in the Tokyo metropolitan area south of Utsunomiya, and one-man operation north of Utsunomiya (between Oyama and Koganei and Utsunomiya in some early mornings), providing transportation between areas within Tochigi Prefecture.After leaving Kuroiso Station, the train heads for Ueno Station, which is known as the northern gateway to Tokyo, and Tokyo Station, the center of Tokyo, via Nasu-Shiobara Station, the gateway to Nasu, Utsunomiya Station, known as the city of dumplings, and Omiya Station, the largest terminal in Saitama Prefecture.Please enjoy the Utsunomiya Line DLC as you travel through the Kanto Plain, experiencing the changing landscape from Tochigi Prefecture to Tokyo, with its sprawling countryside, suburban residential areas, and buildings in the heart of the city.<h2 class="bb_tag" >Highlights</h2><ul class="bb_ul"><li>The Shinkansen detainment line /Kuroiso〜Nasushiobara As Nasushiobara Station approaches, the Shinkansen Nasushiobara detainment line can be seen on the right.</li><li>Tunnel /Nozaki〜Yaita You will pass through the first and last tunnel on the Utsunomiya Line section.</li><li>Karasuyama Line merges /Ujiie～Hōsyakuji The Karasuyama Line joins from the left.</li><li>Kinugawa River/Hōsyakuji〜Okamoto Cross the Kinugawa River.</li><li>Utsunomiya Station This is the station where the Utsunomiya Line operation schedule is currently divided.
