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 Services have now been replaced by a provisional bus rapid transit line.
Utatsu Station was served by the Kesennuma Line, and was located 42.3 rail kilometers from the terminus of the line at Maeyachi Station.
Station layout
Utatsu Station had two opposed side platforms connected by a level crossing. The station was unattended.
