The Linimo is an unmanned Maglev (magnetic-levitated) train that runs from Fujigaoka Station on the Higashiyama Line in Nagoya to Yakusa near the site of the 205 Aichi Expo.
Built for Aichi Expo 2005, the Linimo in Nagoya, a 1.5 hour Shinkansen bullet train ride away from Tokyo, is an unmanned Maglev (magnetic-levitated) train and claims to be the first such urban Maglev service.
The Linimo connects Fujigaoka Station (L01) with Yakusa Station (L09).
The Linimo runs on an elevated track via nine stations on the approximately 9km-long Tobu Kyuryo Line from Fujigaoka Station on the Higashiyama subway Line to the terminus at Yakusa Station, which has connections to the Aichi Loop Line.
The full list of stations on the Linimo is as follows:
Fujigaoka | Hanamizuki-dori | Irigaike Koen | Nagakute Kosenjo | Geidai Dori | Koen Nishi | Ai Chikyu Haku Kinen Koen | Tojishiryokan Minami | Yakusa
IC Cards can be use on the Linimo including the local manaca. A one day unlimited Linimo pass costs 800 yen for an adult. Presently, it is 380 yen for a ticket from Fujigaoka to Yakusa.
