Takaotozan Railway

Two cars are used, both of them made by Hitachi, 1968. They are named Aoba (green leaf) and Momiji (maple leaf), respectively. The cars are connected at opposite ends of the cable, so they move synchronously and counterweight each other.

Services

Cars are operated once every 15 minutes, with the entire ride taking 5 minutes. Fares are 470 yen one-way and 900 yen return for adults (230/450 yen for children). Although more expensive per kilometer when compared to other Japanese railway lines (including the shinkansen), fares on the Takao Mountain Railroad funicular compare with those on similar systems such as the Ōyama Cable Car.
