▢Senzan Line DLC

About the Route

The Senzan Line is a 58.0 km long line connecting Sendai Station in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture and Uzen Chitose Station in Yamagata City, Yamagata Prefecture. The line was named “Senzan Line” after the initials of the two cities, as it connects Sendai and Yamagata. At Uzen Chitose Station, the line connects to the Ōu Main Line, and trains on the Senzan Line also run directly to Yamagata Station. It is also known as the first AC electrified railroad line in Japan.

In addition to trains connecting Sendai Station and Yamagata Station, there are also many section trains that run from Sendai Station to Ayashi Station and Sakunami Station. There is also a rapid train that stops only at major stations from Ayashi Station to Yamagata Station.

After leaving Sendai Station, trains run through a residential area for a while, passing through Kitasendai Station with its many condominiums and Tohoku Fukushi Daigaku Mae Station, which is frequented by students, before heading to Ayashi Station, one of the main stations on the line. After leaving Ayashi Station, the train enters the mountainous area near Sakunami Station, famous for Sakunami Hot Springs and the “Cradle of Exchange Electrification” monument, and heads for Uzen Chitose Station via Yamadera Station, which attracts many tourists. In the mountainous area, there are many tunnels, railway bridges, and curves, and you can feel the ruggedness of the Ōu Mountains.

From Uzen Chitose Station, the train transfers to the Ōu Main Line, running parallel to the Yamagata Shinkansen, which has tracks of different widths, and arrives at its final destination, Yamagata Station.

We hope you will enjoy the scenery as it transitions from residential areas to the suburbs and mountains.
