(almost) square tunnel

This rail was used for the freight trains about 100 years. but it was abandoned for 1980s with the rise of truck transports. In 2000s, long distance passenger train connecting north and south through Shinjuku was needed, this rail was diverted for them now, but because the linearity is bad, the train running on this rail can not raise the speed.
