The is major railway line owned by JR Group companies in western Japan, connecting Kobe Station and Moji Station, largely paralleling the coast of the Inland Sea, in other words the southern coast of western Honshu. The Sanyō Shinkansen line largely parallels its route. The name Sanyō derived from the ancient region and highway Sanyōdō, the road on the sunny (south) side of the mountains. The Sanyō Main Line is operated by the two JR companies West Japan Railway Company (JR West) and Kyushu Railway Company (JR Kyushu). The Wadamisaki Line, a short section of line in length of 2.7 km between Hyōgo and Wadamisaki stations in Kobe is technically part of the Sanyō Main Line. A short section connecting Kitakyushu Freight Terminal also forms part of the Sanyō Main Line. ==Basic data== *Operators, distances: 537.1 km / 333.7 mi. * *West Japan Railway Company (Category-1, Services and tracks) * * *From Kobe to Shimonoseki: 528.1 km / 328.1 mi. * * *From Hyōgo to Wadamisaki: 2.7 km / 1.7 mi. * *Kyushu Railway Company (Category-1, Services and tracks) * * *From Shimonoseki to Moji: 6.3 km / 3.9 mi. * *Japan Freight Railway Company (Category-2, Services) * * *From Kobe to Kitakyushu Freight Terminal: 534.4 km / 332.1 mi. *Gauge: *Stations: * *Passenger stations: 124 * *Freight terminals: 5 *Track: * *Quadruple-track line: * * *From Kobe to Nishi-Akashi: 22.8 km / 14.1 mi. * * *From Kaitaichi to Hiroshima: 6.4 km / 4.0 mi. * *Double-track line: * * *From Nishi-Akashi to Kaitaichi: 275.5 km / 171.2 mi. * * *From Hiroshima to Moji: 208.0 km / 129.2 mi. * *Single-track line: * * *From Hyōgo to Wadamisaki *Electric supply: Whole the line (1,500 V DC.
