The route from Izumi to Fukuyama is primarily served by the Limited Express trains, notably the Kamome and the Nishikigawa. The Limited Express Kamome operates at speeds reaching up to 130 km/h (81 mph) and typically completes the journey in approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, making a few key stops along the way such as Onomichi and Mihara. On the other hand, the Nishikigawa train, while slightly slower with speeds up to 120 km/h (75 mph), also covers the route conveniently in around 2 hours, often providing access to more regional attractions.
Both services feature comfortable seating with options for reserved and non-reserved seats, and passengers can expect a pleasant ride with onboard facilities. The Kamome is favored by those looking for faster travel between major cities, while the Nishikigawa offers a more scenic but leisurely route.
