Enoshima Electric Railway Co., Ltd. (Japanese: 江ノ島電鉄株式会社, Hepburn: Enoshima Dentetsu Kabushiki Gaisha) is a private railway operator in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. Its sole line runs between Kamakura Station in Kamakura and Fujisawa Station in Fujisawa, and both the company and the line are commonly known as Enoden (江ノ電). A wholly owned subsidiary of the Odakyu Group, the company also operates local bus services. The line is popular with visitors to the Shōnan coast, especially those traveling to Enoshima, as sections run close to the shoreline with views of Sagami Bay; its distinctive rolling stock, appearances in television productions, and short street-running segment have further contributed to its appeal.2
