Iwashiroshimizu Station (岩代清水駅, Iwashiro-Shimizu Eki) is a railway station located in the city of Fukushima, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan operated by Fukushima Transportation.[1] Iwashiroshimizu is unique in that it is the last remaining station to be named after the former Iwashiro Province. In 1965 Iwashiro-Atami Station, at the time on the JNR's Ban'etsu West Line, was renamed to Bandai-Atami Station. With the 1972 closure of the Kawamate Line, Iwashiro-Iino Station and Iwashiro-Kawamata Station were shut down. This leaves Iwashiroshimizu as the final station bearing the name of the former province. | ||||||
