Matsuzaki Station (松崎駅, Matsuzaki-eki) is a passenger railway station located in the town of Yurihama, Tōhaku District, Tottori Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by the West Japan Railway Company (JR West).[1]

Lines

[edit]

Matsuzaki Station is served by the San'in Main Line, and is located 264.6 kilometers from the terminus of the line at Kyoto.

Station layout

[edit]

The station consists of one ground-level side platform and one island platform connected by a footbridge to the station building. However, from 2003 the outer track (Track 3) on the island platform was removed, making the station effectively a two side platform configuration. Platform 2 on the former island platform is used only for passing limited express trains, and as a general rule, trains that stop in both directions use Platform 1 on the side of the station building. The station is unattended.
