Yui Station

Yui Station (由比駅, Yui eki) is a railway station in Shimizu-ku, Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, operated by Central Japan Railway Company (JR Tōkai).

Yui Station is served by the Tōkaidō Main Line, and is located 158.4 kilometers from the starting point of the line at Tokyo Station.

Although local residents had petitioned for a station when the section of the Tōkaidō Main Line connecting Shizuoka with Hamamatsu was completed.

However, with the growing importance of agricultural products (green tea, mikan) and Yui's importance as a fishing port, the request for a station was finally granted on April 15, 1916.

Regularly scheduled freight service was discontinued in 1971.
