So there are:
7 or 8 private railway lines (overground) which are run by JR and Toden?
and 2 private underground companies (Toei and Eidan) run by government?

The subways are privately owned, or the majority of the line is privately owned. JR at one time a nationally-owned system, and though the government still owns part, the majority of the railroad is privately owned, and privately managed.
Then there is the privately owned Yurikamome robot train, which runs from Shimbashi to Toyosu. This line will take many people to the Olympics in 2020.
