This collection includes all current Kobe Municipal Subway rolling stock.

Kobe Municipal Subway is a rapid transit system operated by the Kobe City Transportation Bureau in Japan. The company owns five legally distinct lines, but four of which are operated jointly as the Seishin-Yamate Line, with the Kaigan line being the remainder. All lines use standard gauge tracks. The network is currently composed 38.1km of track and 26 stations, lying entirely within Kobe's municipal boundaries. The first subway line in the city was opened in 1971 as a replacement for the Kobe City Tram, which had been abolished six years prior. The Seishin-Yamate Line first opened in 1977 connecting the western suburbs with the city center and JR's San'yo Main Line, it was subsequently extended both further west and east through the city's center to Shin-Kobe Station, with the two new portions legally referred to as the Seishin Extension Line and the Yamate Line respectively. They are operated as a single line, and all services running through to the terminus. The tracks on the western end of the line is mostly above ground, while the portion within Kobe's center is underground. In 2020, the Hokushin Line, which is single stop extension north of Shin-Kobe through a 7.2km tunnel, was merged into Kobe Municipal Subway. As of current, some but not all services through run onto the Hokushin Line. In 2001, the Kaigan Line opened with 10 stations, it runs roughly parallel with the Seishin-Yamate Line between Shin-Nagata and Sannomiya Stations, with a more southerly route. It is entirely underground and within the cities urban core and follows the light metro standards with smaller vehicles and powered by linear motors. The Kaigan Line had underperformed ridership projections drastically and accumulated over 100 billion yen in culmalative losses for the city government, which had largely stalled any plans of expanding the network. The system's ridership stood at 314,000 per day pre-pandemic.

All my workshop mods feature:

-Dedicated models
-Accurate specifications*
-Multiple formations**
-Easily ported to any part of the world

Crush capacity is used for all trains that allow standing passengers, as the design capacity of trains published by companies in Japan do not reflect actual operating conditions and are not suited for gameplay purposes. Capacity will be calculated using the following method, taking into account the seating layout and role of the train:

Urban Trains:
Long: 200% (175% for vehicles below 2.5m in width)
Semi-cross: 175%
Cross: 150%

Regional Trains & All Trams:
Long: 175% standing
Semi-cross: 175% standing
Cross: 150% standing

*Some data may be estimates if the accurate value could not be found despite thorough research, these typically includes situations such as non-distinction between normal and emergency deceleration values, or when the empty mass of a formation is given but not for individual cars.
**For types with only 1 real-world operational formation, realistic hypothetical formations are included.

Any feedback/suggestions/requests are welcome, you can reach me on the game's official discord, or just leave a comment on the mod in question.
