Tōkyū Meguro Line

The nihongo|Meguro Line|目黒線| is a railway line and a commuter service of a Japanese private railway company Tōkyū. As a railway line the name is for the section between Meguro and Den-en-chōfu in southwest Tokyo, but nearly all trains run to Hiyoshi on a quad-tracked section of the Tōyoko Line in Yokohama, Kanagawa. Thus the line is announced as and popularly understood to Hiyoshi.

The Meguro line currently interoperates with the Tokyo Metro Namboku Line and Toei Mita Line beyond Meguro. Until this connection was established in 2000, the line was a part of the Mekama Line, and ran between Meguro and Kamata. The rest of the Mekama Line was named as Tōkyū Tamagawa Line. On June 22, 2008 new tracks for the Meguro Line trains from Motosumiyoshi to Hiyoshi stations began in service.

Express service between Musashi-Kosugi and Meguro started on September 25, 2006, and was extended to Hiyoshi on June 22, 2008. The Express saves 5 minutes over the route and overtakes local trains at Musashi-Koyama. Express trains are in midday one in every 4 to 5 trains, and more in rush hours.
