Kintetsu Minami-Osaka Line

Kintetsu Minami-Osaka Line

The Minami-Osaka Line (南大阪線, Minami-Ōsaka-sen?) is a railway line operated by Kintetsu connecting Ōsaka Abenobashi in Osaka and Kashiharajingū-mae in Kashihara, Nara Prefecture via Osaka's southern suburb cities of Matsubara, Fujiidera and Habikino in Osaka Prefecture, and Katsuragi and Yamato-Takada in Nara Prefecture. The line is the major access from Osaka to southern part of Nara Basin, and together with Yoshino Line to Yoshino refuge of Emperor Godaigo.

The network formed by this line and some branch lines uses a track gauge of 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in), an exception in the Kintetsu network.

Famous quotes containing the word line:

    What comes over a man, is it soul or mind
    That to no limits and bounds he can stay confined?
    You would say his ambition was to extend the reach
    Clear to the Arctic of every living kind.
    Why is his nature forever so hard to teach
    That though there is no fixed line between wrong and right,
    There are roughly zones whose laws must be obeyed?
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
