JR East to Resume Services between Shinjo and Innai Stations on the Ou Main Line before Golden Week Next Year, Also Implementing Non-electrification

JR East has announced the current restoration status and the outlook for operations in the section between Shinjo and Innai stations on the Ou Main Line.

The operation has been suspended due to the impact of heavy rain on July 25, which caused sediment inflow and embankment slope failures at 26 locations.

Operation is planned to resume before the Golden Week of 2025, with the introduction of the electric diesel car GV-E400 series, resulting in the removal of overhead wire equipment. Operation with the KiHa 110 series diesel cars is also being considered for some sections.
