Thank you for playing JR East Train Simulator!
We are pleased to announce the Utsunomiya Line DLC, which will finally go on sale on Tuesday, August 27.


*The screen is under development and the contents may change from the time of release.


Utsunomiya Line is the nickname for trains operating on the 163.3 km long section of the Tōhoku Main Line (between Tōkyō Station and Morioka Station) between Tōkyō and Kuroiso Station.The Utsunomiya Line nickname has been in use since March 10, 1990, at the suggestion of the municipalities along the railway line. In the past, many limited express and sleeper trains to Tōhoku and Hokkaidō used to run, but now Local and rapid trains dominate the timetable.
The current operation system is separated at Utsunomiya Station. South of Utsunomiya, the Ueno Tōkyō Line and Shōnan Shinjuku Line provide commuter and school transportation in the Tōkyō metropolitan area. On the section north of Utsunomiya (some early mornings are between Oyama/Koganei and Utsunomiya), one-man operation is used to provide interregional transportation within Tochigi Prefecture.
After leaving Kuroiso Station, the train heads to Ueno Station, the northern gateway to Tōkyō, and Tōkyō Station, the center of Tōkyō, via Nasu-Shiobara Station, the gateway to Nasu, Utsunomiya Station, known as the city of dumplings, and Omiya Station, the largest terminal in Saitama Prefecture.
We hope you will enjoy the Utsunomiya Line DLC as you travel through the Kantō Plain, experiencing the changing landscape from Tochigi Prefecture to Tōkyō, including sprawling rural landscapes, suburban residential areas, and buildings in the city center.
