Tokyo Metro operates 9 subway lines with a network stretching a total of 195km. Connecting to a number of main stations in Tokyo on both private and JR lines, Tokyo Metro carries 7.4 million passengers and makes 5,700 trips per day.

We go behind the scenes to find out how the drivers are trained to operate such a precise schedule. Also, see how Japan's very first subway line is being transformed using the latest technology.
