Yokkaichi Station

Yokkaichi Station (四日市駅, Yokkaichi-eki?) is a railway station on the Kansai Main Line (Central Japan Railway Company), Ise Railway and Japan Freight Railway Company in Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture, Japan.

Yokkaichi station opened on December 25, 1890. It was nationalized in 1907 and privatized in 1987.

Expresses named "Nanki" (南紀) stop there. But the downtown of Yokkaichi near Kintetsu Yokkaichi Station is about 1 km far from there, so passengers are less than those of Kintetsu Station.

Yokkaichi Station has three platforms. Trains for Nagoya stop at first platform and those for Tsu at second one. The third one is for Ise Railway.

Famous quotes containing the word station:

    “It was evident that the same foolish respect was not here claimed for mere wealth and station that is in many parts of New England; yet some of them were the “first people,” as they are called, of the various towns through which we passed.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
