Toyohashi Railroad Azumada Main Line
The Azumada Main Line (豊橋鉄道東田本線, Toyohashi Tetsudō Azumada-honsen) is a tram line in Toyohashi, Aichi Prefecture, Japan operated by Toyohashi Railroad. It connects Ekimae (situated in front of JR and Meitetsu's Toyohashi Station) to Akaiwaguchi and Undoukoen-mae. The line is also referred to as Toyotetsu City Line (豊鉄市内線, Toyotetsu Shinai-sen), or just City Line.
Until 1976, the company also operated another tram line, the Yagyu-bashi Branch Line.
The entire line is a street-running tram line. It is often called the Shinai-sen or the Shiden (meaning "(inner-)city line" and "city tram" respectively).
Although some sections ceased operations during the 1970s much like many other tram lines in the era, a new branch line was opened in 1982, running between Ihara and Undokoen-mae. In 1998, the Ekimae stop was moved to its current location, extending the line by 150 m (492 ft). In 2005, a new station by the name of Ekimae-odori was created between Ekimae and Shinkawa.
Since 1989, most tramcars excluding type T1000 and Mo3000 have had full-body advertisements.
After the closure of the Meitetsu Gifu City Line (Gifu) and Minomachi Line (Gifu, Seki, Mino) on 1 April 2005, the Azumada Main Line has been the only tram line in Tōkai region.
