Yonesaka Line

The Yonesaka Line (米坂線, Yonesaka-sen?) is a rail line in Japan. Part of the East Japan Railway Company (JR East) system, it runs from Yonezawa Station in Yamagata Prefecture to Sakamachi Station in Niigata Prefecture. At Yonezawa, connections to the Yamagata Shinkansen and Ōu Main Line can be made; while the Uetsu Main Line connects at Sakamachi Station.

The line takes its name from the first kanji of Yonezawa (米沢?) and Sakamachi (坂町?).

Famous quotes containing the word line:

    “The line it is drawn
    The curse it is cast
    The slow one now
    Will later be fast
    As the present now
    Will later be past
    The order is
    Rapidly fadin’.
    And the first one now
    Will later be last
    For the times they are a-changin’.”
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
