Hanwa Line - Trains

Trains

The terminus of the line in Osaka is Tennōji Station in Tennōji-ku where most of commuter trains on the line originate and terminate. However, many intercity limited express and rapid trains extend to the Osaka Loop Line beyond Tennōji.

The terminus in Wakayama is Wakayama Station. Some trains from Osaka terminate before Wakayama and some spur off to Kansai Airport Station on the Kansai Airport Line from Hineno Station. Tracks are connected to the Kisei Main Line and some trains continue thereto.

The Hagoromo Branch Line (羽衣支線, Hagoromo-shisen?), also called the Hagoromo Line (羽衣線, Hagoromo-sen?) or the Higashi-Hagoromo Branch Line (東羽衣支線, Higashi-Hagoromo-shisen?), between Ōtori Station and Higashi-Hagoromo Station, is officially a part of the Hanwa Line. On the 1.7 km branch, only local shuttle trains operate.

Famous quotes containing the word trains:

    “Conventions, at the present moment, are really menaced. The most striking sign of this is that people are now making unconventionality a social virtue, instead of an unsocial vice. The switches have been opened, and the laden trains must take their chance of a destination.”
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

    “The complaint ... about modern steel furniture, modern glass houses, modern red bars and modern streamlined trains and cars is that all these objets modernes, while adequate and amusing in themselves, tend to make the people who use them look dated. It is an honest criticism. The human race has done nothing much about changing its own appearance to conform to the form and texture of its appurtenances.”
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    “To write weekly, to write daily, to write shortly, to write for busy people catching trains in the morning or for tired people coming home in the evening, is a heartbreaking task for men who know good writing from bad. They do it, but instinctively draw out of harm’s way anything precious that might be damaged by contact with the public, or anything sharp that might irritate its skin.”
    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
