Utatsu Station after the 2011 earthquake

Utatsu Station (歌津駅, Utatsu-eki) was a JR East railway station located in Minamisanriku, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan. The blue-roofed station platform remained standing after the 2011 tsunami, however the adjacent railway bridge and track (southwest of the station) collapsed. Services have now been replaced by a provisional bus rapid transit line.
