Sorting this out will become a little difficult soon, since "Tokyo subway" is an umbrella term for all subways in Tokyo, while (effective April 1st 2004) "Tokyo Subway Co. Ltd" is the new name of largest operator Eidan -- and just to make life easier, they'll be calling themselves " Tokyo Metro", not to be confused with the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Transportation of course... Ideas? Jpatokal 09:34, 26 Feb 2004 (UTC)
The separate administration of two subway systems in the same city is unique in the world, says the article, but at least the Yokohama Subway has multiple operators as well. Any others? Jpatokal 15:12, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Wasn't it the case that, for many years, New York had two subway systems (the IRT and the BMT)--and then a third (the IND)--before it all came under the MTA? Even today, the PATH is a separate system that connects downtown Manhattan with New Jersey. 4.243.206.179 08:07, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
The Rt.Hon. 210.149.190.137, Esp. has suggested that this page be merged with Underground railway(metro/subway) of Tokyo (a direct copy of this page), but has offered no rationale. So I've redirected his/her/its version here. Jpatokal 03:43, 20 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Jpato kal pointed above the Yokohama system is administered separately as well. Another example would be MTR and KCRC in Hong Kong.
Could someone knowledgeable throw up a few links to these various organizations? Twinxor 07:22, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Made a poste about image wasn't logged/something strange h'ppnd i'll check in later. Schlüggell | Talk 07:19, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Anyway, I've found one image in the necessary mem-size, that is legible, from 1999; its a wallpaper for personal use. Do I need to put my Japanese hat on for permission? Otherwise all the images I've found are huge-graphics aren't my thing, if someone could point me in the right direction. Schlüggell | Talk 00:45, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Shouldn't there be a section or at least a mention of the 1995 Tokyo subway chemical terrorist attacks? http://www.opcw.org/resp/html/japan.html
I've just read a single sentance in an article on a news site, that there are female-only carriages in the Tokyo subway? is this really true? Toby Douglass 11:45, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
The numbers of stations don't add up. The article gives these numbers: Metro: 168; Toei: 106; TWR: 8; Total: 168 Fg2 20:51, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
I deleted this. It is unclear whether Ikebukuro is the busiest with 468,526 Metro passengers [1] comparing to Shinjuku with 238,421 Metro passengers plus 340,175 Toei passengers [2]. I hesitate to simply claim Shinjuku's victory because Metro and Toei stations in Shinjuku are so isolated that they don’t look like a single station. -- Sushiya 02:21, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
In the London Underground system, the ridership is stated as an annual number. Here it is stated as a daily amount. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.149.76.152 ( talk) 13:31, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

I am posting here after reading the Talk page on the Tokyo Metro page. I have added the below comments on that page and am posting it here too, only changing references such as "this page" so it is clear which page I am referring to. Happy to discuss anything further.
A long outstanding task from 15 years ago! I regularly visit the Tokyo Metro page but had never seen this Tokyo Subway page before. I disagree with User:Mkill as the Tokyo Subway page is confusing and misleading. I think having the combined info is far less user-friendly as the 2 subway systems are completely separate entities with different fares/ticketing/etc - a novice reader will think the 2 subway systems are 1 combined entity and will be confused & frustrated to find out that almost all tickets/passes only work on 1 of the systems, station maps/information mostly only show info for that subway operator, etc.
There are many confusing statements on this Tokyo Subway page. E.g.:
TL/DR; I can't see the point of this combined Tokyo Subway page comprising just the 2 largest subway/Metro companies benefits readers. Apart from the duplication of information, the made-up name "The Tokyo Subway" doesn't actually exist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kc3302 ( talk • contribs) 05:02, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
