1 Progress of recovery work
Of the five derailed cars, three cars (vehicles 2, 3, and 6) were raised on the rail.
The sleepers are severely damaged, and it takes time to jack up the trolley. For this reason, the resumption of operation has not changed at this time, and we are working on restarting all lines from the first train on Sunday, June 9th.
JR East also cooperates with the restoration work.
Future Processes
(1) Raise the remaining two derailed vehicles on the rails
(2) Transport of vehicles to depots
(3) Restoration of damaged orbits (replacement of sleepers)
(4) Restoration of the third rail
2 Operation Status
The Blue Line will run back all day between Azamino and the landing.
Substitution transportation by bus is carried out between Odoriba Station-Nakada Station-Tateba Station-Izumi-Chuo Station (Sotetsu Izumino Line) from 5:30 am to 25:00 am by Kanagawa Chuo Kotsu, Sotetsu Bus, and Authorized Bus. I am. We plan to carry out agency transportation by bus from tomorrow.
(As of 7:30, 19 buses, approximately 5 minutes in the morning and evening, and other time zones will be adjusted according to the customer's situation.)
In addition, due to lack of transportation capacity, we are calling for the use of transfer transportation to other company lines when going out.
3 injured
We have contacted the customer who offered shoulder pain yesterday and have heard that they will be consulted in the future.
In addition, a crew member of the train hit his knees and was diagnosed as suspected of being harmed by the bandage (7 days in total cure).
