From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Chōkai Sanroku Line (鳥海山ろく線, Chōkai Sanroku-sen^?, "Chōkai Submontane Line") is a Japanese railway line between Ugo-Honjō and Yashima, all within Yurihonjō, Akita. This is the only railway line Yuri Kōgen Railway (由利高原鉄道, Yuri Kōgen Tetsudō^?, "Yuri Highland Railway") operates. The third sector company (in Japanese sense) took the former Japanese National Railways line in 1985.
