The Seibu Chichibu Line is a relatively new line that opened in 1969, and was built for the purpose of transporting tourists and the limestone produced along the line.The Shomaru Tunnel, located north of Shomaru Station, is 4,811 meters long. At the time it was constructed, it was the longest private railway tunnel in Japan, and a signal station was installed inside the tunnel to let trains cross paths.

Since then, lime transportation on this route has ended, and the number of tourists has decreased. It was reported that shareholders had proposed a plan to remove the Seibu Chichibu Line in 2023 in order to improve management, but Seibu Railway and the leaders of the lines along the line rejected this proposal.

It was a choice that made both the users and us fans want to scream with applause.

While stopping at each station, the driver crosses in front of the lens to open and close the door, but I have omitted that part. please note that.

The Seibu Chichibu Line is full of fresh greenery in May.

アクセスありがとうございます。西武鉄道西武秩父線の前面展望です。吾野～西武秩父間を収録していますので、この区間が正式な西武秩父線となります。

ワンマン運転のため、乗務員がドア扱いのためにレンズ前を横切ります。この部分は映像を割愛していますので、画像が途切れ、駅の停車時間も短くなっていますが、ご了承下さい。

新緑の西武秩父線は、本当に魅力的です。この路線が廃止に至らなかったことを嬉しく、そして鉄道のファンとして誇りに思います。
