Description
This collection includes in service Yokohama Municipal Subway rolling stock.

Yokohama Municipal Subway is a rapid transit system operated by the Yokohama Municipal Transportation Bureau. First opening in 1972, the system currently has 53.4km of track organised in 2 lines, serving a total of 40 stations. The subway is located entirely within the City of Yokohama except for one terminus station, which is a part of neighbouring Fujisawa City. While the entire network is composed of standard gauge tracks, the electrification method is different. The older Blue Line is powered by 750V DC third rail, while the Green Line uses 1500V DC overhead wires. Legally speaking, the Blue Line is divided into Line 1 and Line 3, but functions one a single line. The Green Line is known officially as Line 4, with the common nicknames given upon the Green Line's opening in 2008. Line 2 was proposed to be constructed roughly parallel to the city's main harbour and coastline, but it was cancelled after the construction of the Minatomirai Line, which serves a similar purpose. Construction is underway for the Blue Line to be extended from it's current northern terminus at Azamino Station to Shin-Yurigaoka Station on the Odakyu Odawara Line. This extension is scheduled to open in 2030 with 4 additional stations. There are various current plans to extend the much shorter Green Line, including the original 1960 proposal for a loop line. The city government has announced that no plan will be finalised until the completion of the Blue Line extension, which has higher priority. Ridership of the subway system was approximately 660,000 passengers per day.

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.
