The Yonesaka Line (米坂線, Yonesaka-sen?) is a rail line in Japan. Part of the East Japan Railway Company (JR East) system, it runs from Yonezawa Station in Yamagata Prefecture to Sakamachi Station in Niigata Prefecture. At Yonezawa, connections to the Yamagata Shinkansen and Ōu Main Line can be made; while the Uetsu Main Line connects at Sakamachi Station.
The line takes its name from the first kanji of Yonezawa (米沢?) and Sakamachi (坂町?).

Famous quotes containing the word line:
“In order to get to East Russet you take the Vermont Central as far as Twitchell’s Falls and change there for Torpid River Junction, where a spur line takes you right into Gormley. At Gormley you are met by a buckboard which takes you back to Torpid River Junction again.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
