Which operators run the Trains to Kyoto?

8 operators run Trains services into Kyoto on our network: Central Japan Railway Company, Hankyu Railway, JR West, Keihan Electric Railway, Kintetsu Railway. Each has its own fares and its own conditions, and every one of them is a real carrier from the published operator catalogue rather than a name we generated.

Which terminal does the Trains to Kyoto use?

Trains services into Kyoto use 3 named terminals, among them Kyōto Station, JR West Kyōto Station, Kintetsu Kyōto Station. The terminal a given service uses is shown on the route page for that journey and again on the ticket, because a city with several is a city where the wrong one costs an hour.

Where these numbers come from

Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modelled number pass for a filed one.
