About The Yamanote Line (Japanese: 山手線, romanized: Yamanote-sen) is a loop service in Tokyo, Japan, operated by the East Japan Railway Company (JR East). It is one of Tokyo's busiest and most important lines, connecting most of Tokyo's major stations and urban centres, including Marunouchi, the Yūrakuchō/Ginza area, Shinagawa, Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and Ueno, with all but two of its 30 stations connecting to other railway or underground (subway) lines.

One stop/start commuter route which would be a Day One purchase for me! Memories of Densha de Go come flooding back. I know you can get the videoclip sim from Ongakukan but very limited compared to what the route in TSW could offer.
Bring it on and for reference the Yamanote Line E235s can then layer onto the Kansai region JR tracks like Kansai Airport to Kyoto the Haruka.
In the Kansai Region, territory of JR West, the E235's are not present at all in the network. It's exclusively JR East rolling stock, as denoted by the "E" in the rolling stock series number. The most modern set of rolling stock used on the Sanyo Line and the Osaka Loop Line would be the 227-series EMU.
I don't know exactly what era the 63 series is from but the time in the photo looks like the 1960s, which is when I would like the tracks the most. The E235 series would be too new for me as the track would become uninteresting for my taste.
This is a good route suggestion if Dovetail can attemped to do a Japanese route DLC or something that Union Workshop can create after they finish their first TSW DLC.
