Josei Sen'yō Sharyō (女性専用車両?) are special passenger cars that exist on some Japanese train lines. They are exclusively for women, and are part of Japanese efforts to reduce groping on public transport by chikan.

Women-only cars are either enforced all day everyday from the first train until the last train, or during peak times, such as the morning and evening rush hours. The women-only restriction often does not apply on weekends and national holidays.
