A number of locals commute on the local trains every day, and the number of commuters is constantly increasing year by year.The train currently has only 6 cars that were launched around 30 years ago. In order to fulfil the increasing number of passengers and ensure comfortable transportation, the Tokyo Metropolitan Department has decided to launch an 8-car subway train with a modern design and facilities.The new subway train is designed based on the policies of convenience, hospitality, and safety.According to the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Transportation, Yutaka Mochizuki, the train's interior is equipped with a lot of glass, creating a bright scene.The handrail is changed to a vertical one, so it's easy for children to hold. When elderly people stand up, they can hold a handrail to support their bodies.

The electronics guideboard has four languages. CCTV is also installed to keep passengers safe.The ticket vending machine has signs in English, Chinese, Korean, Thai, Spanish, and so on.

By reading the QR code, passengers can collect stamps that designate each station.Yutaka Mochizuki further added that the new train on the Mita Line has the new type 6500 and is the third one. The new train is designed under the concept of "Smart and Comfort." A universal design is incorporated into it, so it is comfortable for passengers.The Tokyo Metropolitan Department is constantly improving its facilities to improve the lives of its citizens.It is the reason why Tokyo is continuously progressing and is one of the most developed cities in the world.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
