Iyotetsu Lines 1 and 2

In Matsuyama, Iyotetsu operates circular routes 1 and 2. On the south side routes 1 and 2 operate on the street like other Iyotetsu routes, but on their north side routes 1 and 2 are single track along a narrow right-of-way with passing sidings.

The line is fenced off and all crossings are gated allowing for relatively high speeds.

Here is a second longer video. Various platform arrangements are used: on either side of a crossing, on both sides of the track at the same location and on both sides of passing sidings at key stations.

These smaller systems further away from the prime Osaka-Tokyo corridor are not photographed as much some of more accessible tram lines. We are fortunate to get these videos.
