Torokko Arashiyama Station (トロッコ嵐山駅, Torokko Arashiyama-eki) is the second train station on the Sagano Scenic Line, a sightseeing train[3] that follows the picturesque Hozukyo Ravine of the old JR West Sagano Line. It is located in Kamigyo-ku, Kyoto, Japan.[4]
The station consists of a single ground-level platform servicing trains to Torokko Saga and Torokko Kameoka. Owing to the large number of stairs between the station and the platform, it is not wheelchair accessible.[4][5]
