Yokkaichi Station (四日市駅, Yokkaichi-eki?) is a railway station on the Kansai Main Line (Central Japan Railway Company), Ise Railway and Japan Freight Railway Company in Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture, Japan.
Yokkaichi station opened on December 25, 1890. It was nationalized in 1907 and privatized in 1987.
Expresses named "Nanki" (南紀) stop there. But the downtown of Yokkaichi near Kintetsu Yokkaichi Station is about 1 km far from there, so passengers are less than those of Kintetsu Station.
Yokkaichi Station has three platforms. Trains for Nagoya stop at first platform and those for Tsu at second one. The third one is for Ise Railway.

Famous quotes containing the word station:
“When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
