Location
History
Fujimichō Station opened on 1 November 1987 as a new station added between Bakurōmachi and Gotō on the West Japan Railway (JR West) Sakai Line, in what is now Fujimichō, Yonago, Tottori Prefecture. It was one of the first new stations on the line after JR West's establishment that April. The station became ICOCA-compatible on 16 March 2019 via on-board IC fare-collection equipment rather than fixed gates. It is the closest station to the JR West Gotō rolling-stock works. As part of the line-wide Yōkai naming scheme, the station's nickname is "Zashiki-warashi-eki."
Notes
Although the official rail kilometrage between Fujimichō and the adjoining Bakurōmachi Station is 0.5 km, the actual track distance is only about 420 m — effectively the shortest distance between any two stations across all JR lines in Japan.
