✅ Trains bound for Tokyo don't go to Yokohama
On the JR Sobu Line Rapid, the destination on the departure board is what matters most. Look for the rapid (快速) label, and check that the destination is Ofuna, Zushi or Kurihama.

|---|---|---|
| Ofuna, Zushi, Kurihama | Continues onto the Yokosuka Line after Tokyo Station and runs direct to Yokohama | |
| Tokyo | Terminates at Tokyo Station → transfer needed for Yokohama | |
| Chiba | Terminates at Chiba Station → no direct service to Yokohama | |
For example, the 07:22 rapid is bound for Tokyo, so it doesn't run through to Yokohama. Trains at the same time can also have different destinations on weekdays and on weekends and holidays. Don't board by departure time alone. Check the destination on the departure board that day.
