Uozu Station

Comfortable seaside towe

I decided to go to the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route for the first time, but the weather was not clear, especially on the 19th of the first day of the four consecutive holidays, it was forecast that it would be cloudy from rain, but on Friday the weather improved and the schedule was September 19, 2020. It was decided. I'm going to the mountains, so if it's not sunny, I've been waiting for a sunny contact if it's not worth the trip. The planned route and time are as follows. Shin-Uozu Station 5:40 →→ 7:20 Tateyama Station →→ Bijodaira →→ Murodo (2 hour walk) →→ Daikanmine →→ Kurobedaira →→ Kurobe Dam (1 hour walk) →→ Ogisawa →→ Shinano Omachi Station 17 : 51 →→ Minami-Otari →→ Itougawa →→ Uozu Station 22:00 I will definitely come back with this schedule, and stay at the lively club Uozu store, already reserved a private room with a key. I got up at 4:30 in the morning and headed for Uozu station. This is the old JR Uozu station. Currently, the Hokuriku Shinkansen has opened to Kanazawa Station, so the conventional line that runs in parallel is operated as a three-sector, but I still don't like this policy. Why do you want the common people to privatize their local lines and make a profit? The purpose of passengers on the Hokuriku Shinkansen should be different. If the operating ratio of the Hokuriku Shinkansen is 47.2 yen / 100 yen, which is a very profitable line, the Hokuriku main line can be maintained with its financial resources. At present, Ainokaze Toyama Railway seems to be able to maintain a surplus, but in Japan, where the population is declining and the population is concentrated in large cities, local railways should not be safe. Let's get back to the station. Due to the management separation between Nagano Station and Kanazawa Station on the Hokuriku Shinkansen on March 14, 2015, the section between Kurikara Station and Ichiburi Station on the Hokuriku Main Line will be transferred to Ainokaze Toyama Railway. It was transferred. In front of the station, there is a "delicious water" drinking place where underground water from Tateyama springs up. In the JR era, it was a major station where limited express and express trains always stopped, but now it is stopped at Kanazawa station, which is a limited express train from the Kansai area, and it has changed from a station where several express trains stop every day. It was. Stumps from the Uozu Buried Forest were on display at the station waiting area. The buried forest was a natural monument found about 2,000 years ago when the sediment that flowed out due to the flooding of the Katakai River filled the primeval forest of Sugi, and then the sea level rose and sank into the sea. Actually, instead of taking the Ainokaze Toyama Railway, let's move to Shin-Uozu Station to go by the Toyama Chiho Railway.

You can also go to and from Uozu Station and Shin-Uozu Station by bicycle from the underpass. I had the impression that the Uozu station side was more prosperous. There were enough chairs in the waiting room. There was a spring water corner just outside the station. A hurray statue named "Fledged" stood in Rotary. There was also a statue on the mailbox that had an unknown shape.

Nodoka ... I can't smoke. There is no place to kill time

The station building is as it is, but when you go inside, you will be surprised at the rustic impression. It's peaceful.
