Railway Operators in Japan
This very impressive book was published recently (in English) by the East Japan Railway Culture Foundation. It is both interesting and valuable.
It is perhaps just a bit dated: while it was published late last year, the opening of the Sendai Airport Link in 2007 is described as having only just happened. Presumably production took time.
The articles, arranged by geographical region, started as a long series in the periodical, "Japan Railway and Transport Review" (JRTR), which has the same publisher. They have been brought up to date, consistently edited, and published all together.
I found it an excellent source of information - both as a matter of general interest and professionally: the descriptions of, and information about, Japanese airport railways are valuable.
i have put it into the reference section of IARO's library.
All in all, a very impressive book!
