横浜市交通局 [Yokohama-shi Kōtsū-kyoku]/
Isuzu 2DG-LV290N2 Erga Non-Step #7-1826
25 january 2019 - Yokohama (Kanagawa Pref.), Nishi-ku, Minami-saiwai 1-chōme (神奈川県横浜市西区南幸１丁目), Yokohama-eki Nishi-guchi bus terminal.
87: 横浜駅西口 (Yokohama Station West Exit) → 市民病院 (City Hospital) → 横浜駅西口 (Yokohama Station West Exit) (circular route)
Is this a normal route number? Yes! Yokohama City Bureau of Transportation does NOT use kanji characters in its route numbering. The number and scale of bus operations in Yokohama is slightly mind-numbing, but one way or another you got to somehow cover a 3.73 million population city, which aside from its metric ton of standard-length buses (!!) otherwise only relies on JR, Keikyū, Tōkyū, Sōtetsu, and its own two subway lines. A bit of interesting trivia about Yokohama: as an administrative unit, Yokohama-shi is the most populous city in Japan, however that`s not the case as a general urban unit, in which case it places second - if we can even consider the possibility of splitting out anyting in the wider Kantō agglomeration aside from arbitrary borders.
