History


The Isesaki Line was opened in 1899 between {{Ja-stalink|Kita-Senju}} and {{Ja-stalink|Kuki||Saitama}} with steam motive power by the present company. In 1902 Toōbu extended south to have a maritime connection at present {{Ja-stalink|Narihirabashi}} (then {{Nihongo|Azumabashi|吾妻橋}}, later renamed Asakusa) in downtown Tokyo, and north to {{Ja-stalink|Kazo}}. In the next year further north extension to {{Ja-stalink|Kawamata}} (then on the south bank of Tone River

) was opened. Gradual extension northward progressed, and in 1910 the line arrived {{Ja-stalink|Isesaki}}. In 1931, a bridge over Sumida River

 was built and present Asakusa Station (then {{Nihongo|Asakusa Kaminarimon|浅草雷門}}) opened in the upper floors of a department store building, the entire stretch completed.

Electrification was begun in 1924 on the section of Asakusa and {{Ja-stalink|Nishiarai}}, and in 1927 completed til Isesaki. The distance of over 100 km was then one of the longest electrified railway lines together with the present Kintetsu Osaka Line and Kintetsu Yamada Line

) was built, connecting at Kitasenju.

Further growing traffic required Tobu to make the second through line to Tokyo Metro in 1990s. The answer is the Hanzōmon Line. In 2003, the company built new tracks from Hikifune to connect at {{Ja-stalink|Oshiage}}, officially an annex station of Narihirabashi.

On March 3, 2006, current new timetable changed past operations greatly. Now only less than half trains originate or terminate at Asakusa, i.e. more trains are through to Tokyo Metro underground (subway) lines.
