Towada Kankō Electric Railway

After World War II, restrictions were lifted, and in 1951 the railway was electrified, and its gauge widened from 762 to 1067 mm.

From 1954, the company expanded into the organized tour market, and began operating sightseeing excursion boat services on Lake Towada from September 1954.

The company operates city buses in Hachinohe, Misawa and Towada, as well as an extensive regional bus network, serving the rural communities of Kamikita and Sannohe Districts of eastern Aomori.

Towada Kankō also operates tour bus services from Misawa and Hachinohe to the Towada-Hachimantai National Park.

A subsidiary company, Totetsu Kotsu (とうてつ交通株式会社) operates a fleet of taxis within the city of Towada.
