Yamanote Line
The ridership intensity of the Yamanote Line in 2018 was 1,134,963 passengers - km / km of route. The ridership of the Yamanote Line cited in a 2015 MLIT National Transit report was 4,098,582 trips per day. However, in both cases "Yamanote Line" refers to JR East's internal definition of the entire rail corridor between Shinagawa and Tabata stations via Shinjuku which includes the ridership of the Saikyō and Shōnan–Shinjuku Lines on the parallel Yamanote freight line. Meanwhile, the ridership of the Yamanote Line services between Tabata and Shinagawa Station via Tokyo are excluded and counted as part of the Tōhoku and Tōkaidō Main Lines.
