The Jōban Line (常磐線 Jōban-sen?) is a railway line in Japan operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East). It begins at Nippori Station in Taitō, Tokyo and follows the Pacific coasts of Chiba, Ibaraki, and Fukushima Prefectures before the line officially ends at Iwanuma Station in Iwanuma, Miyagi. However, most trains originate at Ueno rather than Nippori; likewise, many trains continue past Iwanuma onto the Tōhoku Main Line tracks to Sendai. The name of the line refers to the ancient province of Hitachi (常陸) and the Meiji-era province of Iwaki (磐城), which the line connects to Tokyo.

The line is proposed to be extended to Tokyo Station via the Tōhoku Jūkan Line, currently under construction.

As a result of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami and Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, the line is closed between Hirono and Haranomachi.[1]

[edit] Services

For operational purposes the Jōban Line is typically split into three parts: Ueno — Toride, with both local and rapid services; Ueno — Iwaki, with suburban and intercity service beyond Tokyo; and Iwaki — Sendai. This is because there are very few trains that go beyond Iwaki from either direction. The exceptions are: selected Super Hitachi limited express services which operate between Ueno and Sendai/Haranomachi; trains going to Yotsukura and Hisanohama from Mito; and trains going to Ueno and Mito from Kusano, Hisanohama, and Sōma.
