Odawara Express Railway

Japanese: 小田原急行鉄道 - おだわらきゅうこうてつどう
Odawara Express Railway

...In addition to the Odawara Line that runs from Shinjuku to Odawara, there is the Enoshima Line between Sagami-Ono and Katase-Enoshima, the Tama Line between Shin-Yurigaoka and Karakida (all 1067mm gauge), and the monorail line between Mukogaoka-Yuen and Mukogaoka-Yuen Main Gate. The Odawara Line and Enoshima Line were originally built by the Odawara Express Railway, which was founded in 1923, and merged with Tokyu Corporation in 1942, but in 1948 it was separated and the current Odakyu Electric Railway was founded. Trains on the Odawara Line run directly to Hakone-Yumoto via the subsidiary Hakone Tozan Railway (standard gauge) on a three-track system, and some trains also run from Matsuda onto the JR Gotemba Line to Numazu.
