Travelers from Shinagawa to Yokohama primarily use the Tokaido Line, which offers frequent and efficient service on this route. The main train types available are the Limited Express and the Local trains. The Limited Express trains, such as the Odoriko, can reach speeds of up to 120 km/h (75 mph) and complete the journey in approximately 25 minutes with fewer stops. In contrast, Local trains take about 35 minutes, as they make additional stops at several intermediate stations, providing access to various neighborhoods along the route.
On both train types, passengers can enjoy standard seating with options for more spacious accommodations on the Limited Express service. While the Limited Express trains are the fastest option for those aiming to minimize travel time, Local trains are suitable for those who prefer to explore different areas on their way to Yokohama.
