Hōhi Main Line

The Hōhi Main Line (豊肥本線 Hōhi-honsen) is a railway line in Kyushu, southern Japan, operated by the Kyushu Railway Company (JR Kyushu). It connects the west coast and the east coast of the island. The line originates at Kumamoto Station in Kumamoto and ends at terminal of Ōita Station in Ōita.

In 2012, part of the line was seriously damaged by heavy rain, making it impassible. It may take a year to rebuild.[1]
