The track level is about 100 metres (330 ft) below the seabed and 240 m (790 ft) below sea level. It travels beneath the Tsugaru Strait — connecting Aomori Prefecture on the main Japanese island of Honshu with the northern island of Hokkaido — as part of the Kaikyo Line of Hokkaido Railway Company (JR Hokkaido). The name Seikan comes from combining the on'yomi readings of the first characters of Aomori (青森), the nearest major city on the Honshu side of the strait, and Hakodate (函館), the nearest major city on the Hokkaido side.The Seikan Tunnel is the deepest operational main-line rail tunnel in the world (though Line 3 of the Guangzhou Metro's central tunnel has been longer since 2010) and the second longest after the Gotthard Base Tunnel in Switzerland. The Seikan Tunnel is also the longest undersea tunnel in the world, but the Channel Tunnel between the United Kingdom and France has a longer undersea portion."@en }
