The line is Script error: No such module "convert". long and has a rail gauge of Template:RailGauge. It is single-track; however, five of the route's fifteen stations are equipped with passing loops, allowing for the operation of bi-directional traffic. Included in the route is a short (Script error: No such module "convert".) section of street running between Template:STN and Template:STN stations. However, the entire line is governed under the Script error: No such module "Nihongo". of the Japanese government, being granted an exception to allow for street running (the only other examples of street-running 'railways' being the Keihan Keishin Line, Keihan Ishiyama-Sakamoto Line and the Kumamoto Electric Railway).

Stations en route include Template:STN, the stop closest to Kōtoku-in, and Template:STN, which has appeared in a number of films, anime, manga, and TV shows.

The (third) Enoshima Electric Railway Co. was formed on 1 September 1981 as a subsidiary of Odakyu.[4]

Popular culture
