• かつては急行（京阪山科にはかつて待避線が設けられており、ここで普通列車と緩急接続を行っていた）や準急（停車駅は京津三条、御陵より各駅）の運転、石山坂本線との直通運転もあったが、現在はすべて浜大津駅折り返しで普通列車のみの運転である。
• Express trains (which connected to local trains at Keihan-Yamashina Station where a siding was set), sub-express trains (which stopped at Keishin-Sanjo Station and each station of Misasagi Station onward) and direct trains to the Ishiyama-Sakamoto Line used to run in the past, but currently all trains are local trains that turn back at Hamaotsu Station.

• これにより、京都・大阪から宮津・天橋立へ向かう直通ルートが出来たことで北近畿の鉄道事情が大きく改善された（従来は、たとえば京都→天橋立の移動は、綾部駅と西舞鶴駅で二度のスイッチバックを伴うことなり、時間的・心理的な遠さが存在した）。
• This line directly connected Kyoto and Osaka Stations with Miyazu and Amanohashidate Stations, thereby greatly improving rail access to Kitakinki region; in the past, for example, trains had to switchback both at Ayabe Station and Nishi-Maizuru Station when going from Kyoto Station to Amanohashidate Station, so the Kitakinki region had seemed far away both timewise and psychologically.

• しかし、ラッシュ時には奈良電車区所属の国鉄103系電車系6・8両編成、国鉄201系電車6両編成（ウグイス色）や森ノ宮電車区所属の103系・201系8両編成も運用に入り、大阪環状線直通の区間快速と比べると車両のバリエーションが多彩である。
• However, also put into operation during rush hour are Nara Train Depot's JNR 103 series with six or eight-car sets, JNR 201 series with six-car sets (greenish brown color) and Morinomiya Train Depot's 103 and 201 series with eight-car sets, giving a wider variation of cars than the regional rapid trains running on the Osaka Loop Line.

• 本列車群は1999年（平成11年）10月に舞鶴線電化開業にあわせて新設されたものであるが、前身は1972年（昭和47年）10月ダイヤ改正の急行「きのさき_(列車)」の増発により新設された（山陰本線京都方面からの）東舞鶴駅直通列車である。
• This fleet was introduced following the electrification and renewed operation of the Maizuru Line in October, 1999, and its predecessor was a direct train bound for Higashi-Maizuru Station that proceeded from the Kyoto area on the Sanin Main Line, which was set up when the Express 'Kinosaki (train)' increased the frequency of service with the timetable revision of October 1972.

• 一部は関門鉄道トンネルを抜けて門司駅・小倉駅 (福岡県)など北九州市に直通する列車もあったが、2005年10月のダイヤ改正をもってJR西日本管内とJR九州管内を結ぶ直通普通列車は全廃されており、現在は下関折り返しのみの運行となっている。
• In the past some trains ran, via Kanmon Tunnel, to Moji Station/Kokura Station (Fukuoka Prefecture) in Kitakyushu City, but local trains that directly connected the area under the jurisdiction of JR West and that of JR Kyushu were abolished through the schedule amendment of October 2005, and currently all trains stop at Shimonoseki Station and then turn back.

• また昼間にはこの区間快速とは別に大和小泉駅・郡山駅_(奈良県)通過の快速（種別の色がオレンジ。当時は旧幕の字体であって赤色で表示）や、昼間のJR難波 - 高田間直通で和歌山線内各駅停車となる列車も「区間快速」ではなく「快速」として走っていた。
• During the daytime, aside from regional rapid trains, rapid trains ran through Yamato-Koizumi Station and Koriyama Station (Nara Prefecture) (their destination sign was orange, when in those days, the lettering of these signs was written in red), and daytime trains that ran directly between JR Nanba and Takada and came to stop at every station on the Wakayama Line were also operated as 'rapid trains' rather than 'regional rapid trains.'

• 国鉄時代には、当初両線の直通運転を前提として建設の計画がなされていた（直通運転の実験用に試験車両新幹線961形電車が製造された、また、東京駅の東海道新幹線14・15番ホームは直通を想定して作られたため、ホームが東北新幹線側にカーブしている）。
• In the era of Japan National Railways, there were plans to operate trains through both Shinkansen lines (experimental 961-type Shinkansen train-cars were manufactured for testing the through operations, and platforms 14 and 15 for the Tokaido Shinkansen in Tokyo Station are curved towards the Tohoku Shinkansen line side, because they were made assuming that trains were to be operated through both Shinkansen lines).

• 同志社大学京田辺キャンパスに近い興戸駅は急行が停まらないのと烏丸線直通普通が新田辺折返のため近鉄普通の運転間隔が7分半～22分半間隔に開いていて不便なため、新田辺駅へ乗入れる普通電車の近鉄宮津駅への延長の要望もある（詳しくは興戸駅の項を参照）。
• Because Express trains don't stop at Kodo Station, which is near the Doshisha University Kyotanabe Campus, and because the intervals between local trains stopping at Kodo Station vary from 7.5 minutes to 22.5 minutes due to their turning back at Shin-Tanabe, some people have requested local trains going through to Shin-Tanabe Station up to Kintetsu Miyazu Station (refer to the article on 'Kodo Station'.)

• 鉄道運送事業者は、他の運送事業者と連絡運輸若しくは直通運輸又は運賃に関する協定その他の運輸に関する協定をしようとするときは、国土交通省令で定めるところにより、その旨を国土交通大臣に届け出なければならない。これを変更しようとするときも、同様とする。
• When the Railway Transportation Business Operator intends to conclude, with other Railway Transportation Business Operator, an agreement concerning mutually connecting transportation or through transportation, or an agreement on fares or other agreement concerning transportation, he/she shall notify the Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism to that effect pursuant to the provision of an ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. The same shall apply if he/she intends to change the contents of the assignment.

• 鉄道事業者は、利用者の利便の増進を図るため、他の運送事業者その他の関係者と相互に協力して、連絡運輸、直通運輸その他の他の運送事業者の運送との間の旅客の乗継ぎ又は貨物の引継ぎを円滑に行うための国土交通省令で定める措置を講ずるよう努めなければならない。
• The Railway Business Operator shall make efforts to take measures prescribed in the provision of an ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism such as mutually connecting transportation, through transportation and other measures of transit of passengers or transshipment of freight with other transportation business operators, in cooperation with such other transportation business operators and other parties concerned, for the purpose of improving the convenience of users.

• 現行のダイヤでもわかるように、201系であれば加古川～京都間を直通運行しても性能上問題はないのだが、そうするだけの編成数はなく、当時の状況では車両の増備もままならなかったことから、既存の車両だけで対応するにはスクラップ&ビルドもやむを得なかった。
• As seen in the current timetable, train series 201 could operate directly between Kakogawa and Kyoto without any performance problems, but the actual quantity of available type 201cars at that time was not enough for the Keihanshin Local Line to accomplish this schedule, and since JNR was in a difficult position to increase the required type 201 cars, the Keihanshin Local Line was compelled to manage the existing cars by scrap and build methods.

• だが、戦中に京阪電気鉄道が京阪神急行電鉄（1973年に阪急電鉄と改称）に統合され、戦後の1949年にその京阪電気鉄道が新京阪線を京都本線と改称して阪急に残した形で再発足すると、それらとも争う形で再び京阪間直通客の獲得に乗り出し、特急が運転されるようになる。
• However, during the war the Keihan Electric Railway was swallowed by the Keihanshin Express Railway (the name was changed to Hankyu Railway in 1973), and after the war, in 1949, part of the Keihan Electric Railway restarted its business, handing over the Shinkeihan Line (the name of which was then changed to the Kyoto Main Line) to Hankyu Railway and began competing with other railway lines to attract commuters between Kyoto and Osaka by introducing limited express trains.

• しかしながら、両社はこの区間において在来線同士の直通運転を除き、新幹線と在来線の相互連携は特に見られない（特別企画乗車券「伊豆フリーQきっぷ」で、東京 - 熱海 - 三島間で東海道新幹線あるいは在来線特急（踊り子 (列車)）自由席の利用が可能である程度）。
• However, no specific example of cooperative operations between the Shinkansen line and regular railway lines exist in this section, except through train operations between regular railway lines (the only case available is Izu Free Q Kippu (a free pass to access the Izu Peninsula), with which either riding a Shinkansen train or the 'Odoriko' train (unreserved seats) on the regular railway line is allowed.

• 同年中には加茂 - 新木津（のちに木津と統合して廃止）間を開通させて、前年に買収した浪速鉄道の路線を経由して、大阪の網島駅（1898年 - 1913年の間、現在の京橋駅 (大阪府)近くにあったターミナル駅） - 四条畷駅 - 名古屋間に直通列車を走らせた。
• In the same year, the company began operations on the Kamo-Shinkizu (later, it was integrated with Kizu and was abolished) section, and it began to operate direct trains on the Amishima Station in Osaka (a terminal station that existed near current Kyobashi Station (Osaka Prefecture) from 1898 until 1913)-Shijonawate Station-Nagoya Station section via the line of Naniwa Railway which the company acquired during the previous year.

• 同様に交流電化で列車本数が少なく、米原以西への直通がなかった湖北地区に「新快速の直通を」という機運が高まり、湖西と湖北地区の相互交流も、この交直セクションのために直通電車が少なく不便であったので、これらを解消するためにも直流化工事は地元の重要課題であった。
• Likewise, in the Kohoku area, where the line was AC-electrified and thus operated with only a few trains, and a through-train to Maibara Station and stations to the west of Maibara Station didn't exist, 'the special rapid train' gathered momentum; since the transfer among the Kosei and Kohoku areas was inconvenient because of the existence of the AC/DC section and a few through-trains being operated, the construction for the DC electrification was the important challenge for the local governments so as to overcome these problems.

• なお、京都市営地下鉄では他にも、京都市営地下鉄烏丸線と、竹田駅 (京都府)を介して同線と直通運転する近鉄京都線においても、京都駅～竹田間の運賃不整合の問題が起きている（尤も、こちらは地下鉄の方が高額になるため、地下鉄直通列車側で運賃に関する車内アナウンスがある）。
• Similar problems exist on another Kyoto Municipal Subway line: between Takeda Station (Kyoto Prefecture) and Kyoto Station, either the Karasuma Line of Kyoto Municipal Subway or the Kintetsu Kyoto Line which runs directly into the subway line via Takeda Station, is available, but their fares are different (in this case, the fare for the subway line is costly and fare-related announcements are made within the trains cars operated by the subway).

• 1997年3月のダイヤ改正（後述）で一旦は区間快速に統合されていたが、今宮に停車する大阪環状線直通の区間快速への誤乗等が相次いだことや今宮を通過するJR難波発着の区間快速との区別を図る目的で、2008年3月15日のダイヤ改正でJR難波発着の区間快速を再び快速とした。
• In a timetable revision made in March of 1997 (mentioned below), Rapid Service was temporarily integrated as a regional rapid train, but in a revision made on March 15, 2008, the regional rapid running to and from JR Nanba once again became a rapid train due to many passengers mistakenly getting on the regional rapid train stopping at Imamiya that runs through the Osaka Loop Line, as well as to make a distinction between regional rapid trains running to and from JR Nanba through Imamiya.

• 事業者は、前条の作業場を有する建築物の避難階以外の階については、その階から避難階又は地上に通ずる二以上の直通階段又は傾斜路を設けなければならない。この場合において、それらのうちの一については、すべり台、避難用はしご、避難用タラツプ等の避難用器具をもつて代えることができる。
• The employer shall provide the floors other than the evacuation floor of a building having the workshop set forth in the preceding Article with two or more direct stairs or slope passages that lead to the evacuation floor or to the ground. In this case, one of the said direct stairway or slope passage may be substituted for by a chute, an escape ladder or other evacuation tool.

• だが、結局大阪市が4号線を第三軌条式で建設してしまったため京阪は新線建設をあきらめ、残る近鉄が自社線内を架線式として架線式・第三軌条式両方に対応する車両を開発した上で4号線と相互直通する方針を固めたものの、大阪市が難色を示したため、近鉄も新線建設をあきらめるようになった。
• However, eventually Osaka City constructed the fourth line using the third-rail system, whereupon Keihan abandoned the plan of constructing the new line and the remaining Kintetsu decided on a policy of introducing through-service between the new line by Kintetsu and the fourth line by developing train cars that use trolley lines on Kintetsu's line and also support the third-rail system; however, because Osaka City was reluctant to accept the plan, Kintetsu also abandoned the plan to construct the new line.

• 当駅以南から京都駅まで向かう場合にも両社の運賃の不整合が生じており、近鉄京都駅までの乗車券で地下鉄京都駅で下車しようとすると追加運賃が生じる（ちなみに京都市営地下鉄においてはこの他、京都市営地下鉄東西線山科駅・京阪京津線京阪山科駅において、直通運転対象との運賃不整合問題がある）。
• The train fares for Kyoto Station from stations in the south of this station differ from those for the subway and Kintetsu lines, and when you exit through a gate at the subway Kyoto station with a ticket for the Kintetsu Kyoto station, you are required to pay an additional fare (on the Kyoto Municipal Subway lines, train fare inconsistency also exists for the through-service operation at Yamashina Station on the Tozai Line of the subway and/or the Keihan Yamashina Station on the Keihan Keishin Line).

• 普通列車は、基本的に線内のみの運行（ほぼ毎時1本程度）で、北近畿タンゴ鉄道MF100・200形気動車（福知山運転支区所属）が使用されているが、一部に宮津線に直通する列車も設定されていており、その場合は北近畿タンゴ鉄道KTR700・800形気動車（西舞鶴運転区所属）も使用されている。
• Local train services (almost one per hour) basically only run on the Miyafuku Line and use KTR Diesel Cars Series MF100 & 200 (belonging to Fukuchiyama Railway Branch Yard) but some trains, using KTR Diesel Cars Series KTR700 & 800 (belonging to Nishi-Maizuru Railway Yard), directly connect with the KTR Miyazu Line.

• 運転系統としては、京都駅から西日本旅客鉄道（JR西日本）山陰本線経由で、舞鶴線の東舞鶴駅および北近畿タンゴ鉄道宮福線・北近畿タンゴ鉄道宮津線経由で豊岡駅 (兵庫県)に直通運転する系統と、天橋立駅で特急「はしだて (列車)」又は「文殊 (列車)」に接続し、宮津線内で完結する系統の2種がある。
• There are two operation routes starting from Kyoto via the West Japan Railway Company (JR West) Sanin Main Line: the route that goes directly to Toyooka Station (Hyogo Prefecture) through Higashi-Maizuru Station on the Maizuru Line, and through the Kitakinki Tango Railway Miyafuku Line and Kitakinki Tango Railway Miyazu Line; and the route in which the train terminates on the Miyazu Line after making a connection with the limited express trains 'Hashidate (train)' or 'Monju (train).'

• 戦前より旧京都市内の交通は主として市交通局の市電・市バスが担当し、郊外路線は民間バス会社が受け持つといった形態で運行されており、利用客からは乗り換え無しに直通できる運行を希望する声が高かったので、発足当初からの課題は企業規模の拡大と市内部への進出、特に主要ターミナルへの乗り入れ実現にあった。
• The company's biggest tasks, subsequent to its inauguration, were to expand and make inroads into the area within the city--especially to the principal terminals--because since the pre-war period private bus companies had operated basically in the suburban area while City Tram and City Bus (operated by the City Transportation Bureau) had dominated the area within the city; as a result, the company faced a strong request from its passengers to run buses by which they could reach the city center without having to transfer.

• 関西鉄道は網島 - 四条畷 - 新木津間を名阪間を結ぶ本線とし、網島 - 名古屋間に四条畷経由で直通列車を運転するが、1900年に大阪鉄道を合併して名阪間の本線を王寺経由に変更、さらに加茂 - 奈良間を大仏経由から木津経由に変更した1907年より後は、木津 - 桜ノ宮・片町間を結ぶだけのローカル線となった。
• The Kansai Railway line between Amijima, Shijonawate and Shin-Kizu was considered to be the main line connecting Nagoya and Osaka, and direct trains ran between Amijima and Nagoya through Shijonawate, but in 1900 the Kansai Railway merged with the Osaka Railway and changed the main line between Nagoya and Osaka to one running through Oji and while, after 1907 when the line between Kamo and Nara through Daibutsu changed to run through Kizu, only the local line between Kizu, Sakuranomiya and Katamachi remained.

• しかし、国鉄分割民営化後はJR西日本において「琵琶湖線」や「JR京都線」、「JR神戸線」などの線名の愛称が定められたことをはじめ、国鉄末期からの運行区間の拡大や、JR東西線の開業に伴い、福知山線やJR東西線などとの直通運転の開始によって定義があいまいになってきたことから、最近ではあまり聞かれなくなってきている。
• After the division and privatization of JNR, however, this name has seldom been used because JR West designated the names 'Biwako Line,' 'JR Kyoto Line' and 'JR Kobe Line,' and definitions became vague due to the fact that the section of operations expanded near the end of the JNR era and direct trains started to run into the Fukuchiyama Line and the JR Tozai Line after the JR Tozai Line came into operation.

• おおさか東線経由の直通列車は奈良 - 関西本線（大和路線）・当線・JR東西線 - 東海道本線・山陽本線（JR神戸線） - 西明石駅または福知山線新三田駅との間で運転が検討されていたが、JR福知山線脱線事故発生後、ゆとりのないダイヤグラムに批判が相次いだことから、乗り入れするかどうかを含めて再検討がなされていた。
• The direct train by way of the Osaka Higashi Line was scheduled to run through the Nara and Kansai Main Line (Yamatoji Line), Katamachi Line, JR Tozai Line, Tokaido Main Line, Sanyo Main Line (JR Kobe Line) and Nishi-Akashi Station or Shin-Sanda Station on the Fukuchiyama Line, but after a derailment accident on the JR Fukuchiyama Line, the diagram, not free from pressure, was criticized and revised, on the basis whether to connect the line with those lines or not.

• 京都方面から京阪宇治線方面への直通運転を考えれば、この駅でスイッチバックするよりも、伏見区の中心地に位置する北隣の伏見桃山駅からそのまま分岐した方が合理的と思われがちだが、同駅南側には既に民家などが密集していて、それを立ち退かせる費用や立ち退き対象の世帯の交渉が煩雑になることなどから、現在の形に至った経緯がある。
• Considering the operation of through-service from the Kyoto area to the area along the Keihan Uji Line, it is supposed that it may be better to branch the line at Fushimi-momoyama Station, located in the center of Fushimi Ward and immediately north of this station, instead of switching back trains at this station, but the following reasons exist for using the present system: private houses and other buildings are already dense on the south side of Fushimi-momoyama Station, and there exist the cost-related problems of moving these houses and the negotiations for the movement would become complicated.

• また、観光需要を見いだせるとされる駅の周辺も歴史に縁があったり古い町並みが残ってはいるが、長浜市の黒壁スクエアのような観光地としての整備が不十分で、現状のままでは電化しても新たな観光需要は生まれない、とされる（長浜が成功したのも観光地としての徹底した整備が主因であり、京阪神からの新快速が直通したことは間接的影響に過ぎない）。
• Further, it is said that although historical spots or old streets are located in the surrounding area of stations that are expected to attract tourists, these areas are not well-prepared as tourist spots, unlike Kurokabe Square in Nagahama City, and new tourism demands may not be created by electrifying the line under the current situation (the main reason for Nagahama's success was its efforts as a tourist spot and direct running of Special Rapid from Keihanshin (Kyoto, Osaka and Kobe) contributed only indirectly).

• 日中のダイヤは15分間隔で運転される京津線からの直通列車を除けば、開業当初は全線で10分間隔（1時間あたり6本）だったが、2000年3月に烏丸御池駅で連絡する京都市営地下鉄烏丸線と運転間隔を揃えるためもあり7分半間隔（1時間あたり8本）に増発され、これにより15分あたり東西線内列車2本：京津線直通列車1本のパターンになった。
• Trains used to be operated every ten minutes (six trains per hour) during the day at the beginning of the inauguration throughout the line, except for trains coming from the Keishin Line which runs at a 15-minute interval; however, since March 2000 trains have been operated every 7.5 minutes (eight trains per hour) in order to synchronize the time schedule with trains operated on the Karasuma Line of Kyoto Municipal Subway, which are connected to trains operated on the Tozai Line at Karasuma Oike Station, resulting in a ratio of 2:1 per quarter hour for trains operated on the Tozai Line relative to those operated directly to the Keishin Line.

• 上記のほか、木津 - 奈良間では奈良線の全列車と片町線の一部の列車が乗り入れており、奈良線直通で京都 - 奈良間に奈良線みやこ路快速・快速列車・区間快速が、片町線方面には快速・区間快速が、また大阪環状線と並行する新今宮 - 天王寺間には阪和線・大阪環状線から南紀方面特別急行列車や関空快速、紀州路快速、快速などが直通運転されている。
• Between Kizu and Nara, all Nara Line trains and some Katamachi Line trains run through to the Yamatoji Line; between Kyoto and Nara, the Nara Line operates a through service for its Miyakoji rapid trains, its rapid trains, and its regional rapid trains and the Katamachi Line operates quarter rapid and regional rapid trains; and between Shin-Imamiya and Tennoji (which runs parallel to the Osaka Loop Line), Nanki-bound special express trains, Kanku rapid trains, Kishuji rapid trains, and rapid trains from the Hanwa Line and Osaka Loop Line run directly through to the Yamatoji Line.

• 2000年に宇治線と京阪本線の直通列車が中書島を境に系統分割された後も当駅折返し三条（又は出町柳）行ホームとして使用されていたが、2003年秋のダイヤ改正とともに当駅折返し列車は平日1往復となり、さらに2006年春のダイヤ改定後は当駅折返し列車が全廃されたため、現在は早朝のごく僅かの宇治線列車しか使用していない（平日2本、休日1本）。
• Even after the system for the trains providing through-service between the Uji Line and the Keihan Main Line was divided in 2000 with Chushojima as the boundary, this track was used for the trains returning for Sanjo Station or Demachiyanagi Station at this station; however, after the train schedule was changed in the autumn of 2003, only one train returning at this station was operated on a weekday, and then, when the train schedule was changed in the spring of 2006, the operation for the trains returning at this station was abolished; accordingly, today only a few trains on the Uji Line use this track in the early morning (two trains a day in the weekday and a train on holidays).

• 前述のようにJR東西線を介して片町線とは木津（ただし、木津発は早朝の木津発西明石行1本のみで、早朝の一部を除けば松井山手駅始発・終着）まで、JR宝塚線（福知山線）とは篠山口駅（ただし、篠山口発は夜間の高槻行き（休日は京都まで延長）1本のみ。早朝、朝ラッシュ時、深夜の一部を除く大半は新三田始発・終着）まで、それぞれ直通運転を実施している。
• As mentioned above, direct trains run to the Kizu Station of the Katamachi Line via the JR Tozai Line (only one train departs from the Kizu Station to Nishi-Akashi Station in the early morning, and others depart from and arrive at Matsuiyamate Station) as well as to the Sasayamaguchi Station of the JR Takarazuka Line (Fukuchiyama Line) (only one train bound for Takatsuki (for Kyoto on holidays) departs from Sasayamaguchi Station at night and most other trains depart from and arrive at Shin-Sanda Station, except those in the early morning, morning rush hour, and in the middle of the night).

• 観光受け入れ都市としては国内随一である京都だが、市内から他地方へ観光旅行へ出かける人員には限度があり、また観光シーズンとシーズンオフの変動の激しさや、他府県からの直通観光バスやマイカーの流入、市内よりのマイカーによる流出など運営に関する諸種の障害があらわれはじめ、稼働率の低下や収益率の伸び悩みが経営を圧迫して貸切部門の存続を許容しがたくなった。
• The operation of the reserve bus business became difficult to continue due to the low operation rates and profitability caused by obstacles such as the limited numbers of people visiting other regions, despite Kyoto's reputation as Japan's largest tourist destination; the considerable fluctuation between the tourist season and the off-season; the inflow of tourist buses and private cars from other prefectures; and the outflow of people from the city using private cars.

• そもそも、敦賀 - 京都間は湖西線経由が最短ルートなのに、敦賀経由の直通列車は設定されず、舞鶴線・山陰本線経由で直通列車を設定していたのは、京都・大阪方面から若狭地方西部への出入りに対応したのと、小浜線内の地域輸送とを兼用したためである（例として敦賀 - 福知山間を直通していた普通列車や、東舞鶴以東つまり小浜線内が普通列車となる京都発着の急行「丹後」などが挙げられる）。
• Originally the shortest route between Tsuruga and Kyoto was by way of the Kosei Line, but the direct line going through Tsuruga was not set up and instead the direct line going through the Maizuru Line and the Sanin Main Line was set up, because it met the coming and going from Kyoto, Osaka region to the west of Wakasa region and it also undertook the local transportation on the Obama Line (for example, we can raise the local trains directly linking Tsuruga with Fukuchiyama or the express train 'Tango' and so on, whose departure and arrival was in Kyoto and which ran as a local train eastward from Higashi-Maizuru, that is, on the Obama Line).

• この過程で、振動を抑制し、乗り心地改善と高速運転に資する「カルダン駆動方式」と高速対応の新型台車、床面シャーシだけでなく側板や天井にも応力を分散させた「全金属製軽量車体」、全車両にモーターを搭載して加速力を高める「全電動車方式」、反応速度が速い上に取り扱いが容易な「電磁直通ブレーキ機構」、制御装置1台を2両の電動車で共用して軽量化やコストダウンを実現する「1C8M方式（MMユニット方式）」など、それ以前の電車とは一線を画する重要な革新的技術が、1953年からわずか数年の間に実用化されて普及した。
• In this process, important innovative technologies, clearly different from those in previous train-cars, as described in the following, came to be practically used only during several years from 1953: The new train-car base supporting high-speeds in addition to 'the Cardan driving method,' which enabled the suppression of vibration and contributed to making passengers feel more comfortable and to enabling high-speed operations, 'all-metal light body train-cars,' which enabled stress to be distributed to side plates and ceilings as well as floor chassis, 'the method of electrifying every train-car,' in which every train-car was equipped with an electric motor to increase acceleration performances, 'the electromagnetic straight brake mechanism,' which provided quick response abilities and allowed it to be handled easily, and 'the 1C8M method (MM unit method),' in which a control unit was shared by two electric power train-cars, contributing to reducing cost and to making the car bodies lighter.
