>>1135787For Haneda access in term of Kawasaki, instead of using Kawasaki Approach Line, or new bridge, how about dual gauge the segment of Tokaido line between Keikyu Daishi Line Kojima Shinden station (Shiohama in the map) and Keikyu Airport Line Tenkubashi station?
The name Kanagawa Easterly Direction Line was coined after they switched the plan and basically given up the original alignment and original purpose.
Spraking of which, after the construction of Sotetsu-JR connection line segment completed, Sotetsu trains that enter Tokaido Freight line most probably could continue toward Tokaido Passenger line? This way passengers from Kawasakk only need to transfer at the Hazawa Yokohama Kokudai station for one more station toward Shin-Yokohama, and transfr time will probably be less than Higashi-Kanagawa statin or Yokohama station? Although it would still be an inferior option to Shinagawa, which have direct train service to Kawasaki despite being further away.
