New Transit Yurikamome

New Transit Yurikamome, often shortened to Yurikamome, is an automated guideway transit system operated by the Tokyo Waterfront New Transit Corporation. The line connects Shimbashi to Toyosu via the artificial island of Odaiba, located off Tokyo, and competes with the Rinkai Line in this respect.
Originally widely feared that the Yurikamome when built would become a multi-billion yen white elephant, the Yurikamome is at present making a net profit and will be able to pay off its loans in full much faster than the 20 years that was originally predicted; operating schedules and the like have been continually revised to cope with the ever increasing number of passengers.
The company is named after the black-headed seagull, the official prefectural bird of Tokyo and a common sight at the Tokyo Bay.
