JR East Warns of Possible Train Disruptions in Greater Tokyo Due to Heavy Rain
Kitahiroshima City in Hokkaido and JR Hokkaido have decided to name the new station on the Chitose Line, currently under construction next to Hokkaido Ballpark F Village, “F Village Station.”
Kitahiroshima City proposed the name, taking into account the name of the municipal urban park, “Hokkaido Ballpark F Village,” and using suggestions submitted by local residents as a reference. JR Hokkaido made the final decision. The station name is pronounced “Efu Birēji” in Japanese, and its English name is “F-VILLAGE.” Its station number will be H06-1. The opening date will be announced at a later date.
JR Hokkaido has released a construction video of F Village Station on its official YouTube channel.
