Yonezawa to Murayama Train
The service between Yonezawa and Murayama is primarily covered by the Limited Express Inaho train. This train provides a comfortable travel experience with both standard and green class seating options. The Inaho operates at speeds of up to 110 km/h (68 mph), allowing it to complete the journey in approximately 50 minutes. The route features scenic views of the surrounding countryside and mountains, offering passengers a glimpse of the beautiful landscapes of Yamagata Prefecture.
