The Osaka Metro Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi Line (長堀鶴見緑地線, Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi-sen) is an underground rapid transit system in Osaka, Japan, operated by Osaka Metro. It was the first linear motor rapid transit line constructed in Japan (and the first outside North America, predated only by the Intermediate Capacity Transit System in Toronto and Vancouver[1]). Its official name is Rapid Electric Tramway Line No. 7 (高速電気軌道第7号線), and in MLIT publications, it is written as Line No. 7 (Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi Line) (7号線(長堀鶴見緑地線)). Station numbers are indicated by the letter "N".
