Forms

振替(ふりかえ) (transfer, substitution) + 輸送(ゆそう) (transport) → substitute transport

Usage

When a line stops, the railway announces 振替輸送(ふりかえゆそう), and passengers can ride the other companies' lines it names without paying again. It generally covers paper tickets and commuter passes (定期券(ていきけん)); a fare paid from an IC card's stored balance is usually not covered, so check the railway's announcement.
