San'yō Main Line
The San'yō Main Line (山陽本線, San'yō-honsen) is a major railway line owned by JR Group companies in western Japan, connecting Kōbe Station and Moji Station, largely paralleling the coast of the Seto Inland Sea, in other words, the southern coast of western Honshu. The San'yō Shinkansen line largely parallels its route. The name San'yō derived from the ancient region and highway San'yōdō, the road on the sunny (south) side of the mountains. The San'yō Main Line is operated by two JR companies: West Japan Railway Company (JR West) JR Kobe Line, San'yō Line Kyushu Railway Company (JR Kyushu) San'yō Line The Wadamisaki Line, a short section of line in the length of 2.7 km (1.7 mi) between Hyōgo and Wadamisaki stations in Kobe is a branch of the San'yō Main Line. A short section connecting Kitakyushu Freight Terminal also forms part of the San'yō Main Line.
