Tokyo Rail Typing adds 26 Japanese railway routes across Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya and Hokkaido. Browse 102 lines with filters, Kansai planning and verified scores.
A cross-line contest that resets every night and pays the podium in Pro days. Five lines opened — the Keio Inokashira Line, the Keisei Main Line out to Narita, and JR West’s Nara, Sagano and Biwako lines from Kyoto. Plus a romaji engine that stopped accepting keys nobody types, complimentary Pro that stacks as a day ledger, and avatars on every leaderboard.
The first of a weekly note on what changed. Two major private railways opened — the Keihan Main Line up the Yodo River to Kyoto, and the Keio Line west out of Shinjuku. A romaji bug the Keio Line exposed, every leaderboard reopening after the boarding leg, a home page that finally shows live play, and seven corrections sent in by players.
