Kumano Gongen Crossing, JR Chuo Line
OnlineThis live camera watches the Kumano Gongen level crossing on the JR Chลซล Main Line, a busy double-track corridor linking Tokyo with the mountains of central Japan. Limited express services such as the Azusa and Kaiji, together with local and freight trains, roll past the warning bells and striped barriers framed by tidy houses and distant hills. The surrounding orchards are famed for their peaches and grapes, giving the scene a distinctly rural feel.

Everything you need to know about this live stream
The Kumano Gongen Crossing
The camera looks east-northeast along the JR Chลซล Main Line as it threads through the orchards of Fuefuki. Warning lights, striped barriers and a 3D laser obstacle-detection system guard the point where road and rail meet, while a lineside signal marks the boundary between two block sections.
Trains You Will See
Sleek Azusa and Kaiji limited expresses race toward Shinjuku and Tokyo, around 80 minutes away, while local commuter sets and the occasional freight service rattle the rail joints. The neighbouring Kasugaicho and Isawa-Onsen stations bracket this stretch of line.
Orchard Country
This corner of Yamanashi is celebrated for its peaches and grapes, and the famed Katsunuma wine district lies close by. Vineyards and fruit farms frame the tracks, with the hills of the Kลfu Basin rising in the distance.
A Trainspotter's Window
An on-screen clock synchronised to Japan Standard Time lets viewers time each passing service to the second. The ultra-low-latency feed makes this a favourite for railfans tracking the steady rhythm of the Chลซล Main Line.
