The Keio Liner private room plan was provided as a demonstration experiment. "Keio Liner" (Shinjuku Station ~ Keio Hachioji Station, Shinjuku Station ~ Hashimoto Station) and "Mt. TAKAO" (Shinjuku Station ~ Takao Yamaguchi Station) are 10-car trains of the 5000 series and are equipped with power supply and Wi-Fi.

The boarding section can be decided by the user if it is a stop of "Keio Liner" and "Mt. TAKAO". The private room plan can accommodate from 1 to a maximum of 39 people per vehicle. The basic fare is 40,000 yen (tax included), and a separate fare for the number of passengers is required. The fare is paid in cash on the day of boarding. Options such as renting uniforms for railway attendants are also available. The ride period will begin on August 17 and the end date is yet to be determined.

To apply, send the desired date, desired train, number of passengers, and plan details by e-mail (koshitsuplan@keio.co.jp) to the Keio Electric Railway's Railway Sales Department's Sales Management Office (group reception). Reception is possible from 2 months before the boarding date, and the contents must be confirmed at least 2 weeks before the boarding date. The timetable for "Keio Liner" and "Mt. TAKAO" can be found on the official Keio Liner website.

The Keio Liner private room plan was first realized from a proposal by a driver at the site. Keio Corporation is promoting the Keio Liner as a school for family use, saying, "We want to make the Keio Liner more accessible and increase its value together with our customers."
