Tôyô Kôsoku Tetsudô (East Chiba Prefecture Rapid Railway)
1067 mm gauge, overhead current collection (direct current 1500 V).

Many trains are linked to the Tôzai-sen and run between Tôyô Katsutadai (on the Keisei railway) and 1 Nakano via the Tôzai-sen. Both Tôzai-sen trains and Tôyô Kôsoku Tetsudô trains are used.
Length: 16, 2 km. The line was opened in 1996.
