Service
Although the Kesennuma Line's south end is Maeyachi, its operational south end should be considered Kogota Station in Misato, as the majority of Kesennuma Line trains either have Kogota as their south terminus or go through it on the way to Sendai. Trains going this far also stop at Kami-Wakuya (local only) and Wakuya Stations in Wakuya, Miyagi on the Ishinomaki Line.
As of April 2005, there were 22 trips daily using this line (10 south-bound, 12 north-bound). In all cases, the north terminus was Kesennuma, but the south end varied depending on the trip. The south terminus could be Kogota (6 south-bound, 8 north-bound), Sendai (2 south-bound, 2 north-bound, a limited express run called the Minami-Sanriku that does not stop at all stations and runs on the Tohoku Main Line tracks from Kogota to Sendai without stopping), Motoyoshi (1 south-bound, 2 north-bound), or Onagawa (1 south-bound, switching to the Ishinomaki Line tracks at Maeyachi).

Famous quotes containing the word service:
“The gods’ service is tolerable, man’s intolerable.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
“The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it NOW deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.”
—Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
“Night City was like a deranged experiment in Social Darwinism, designed by a bored researcher who kept one thumb permanently on the fast-forward button. Stop hustling and you sank without a trace, but move a little too swiftly and you’d break the fragile surface tension of the black market; either way, you were gone ... though heart or lungs or kidneys might survive in the service of some stranger with New Yen for the clinic tanks.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
