    The Tenryū Hamanako Line (天竜浜名湖線, Tenryū Hamanako-sen), or Tenhama Line (天浜線, Tenhama-sen) for short, is a Japanese railway line in Shizuoka Prefecture, paralleling the north coast of Lake Hamana between Kakegawa StationinKakegawa and Shinjohara StationinKosai. This is the only railway line of Tenryū Hamanako Railroad (天竜浜名湖鉄道, Tenryū Hamanako Tetsudō).

    History[edit]

    The Japanese National Railways Futamata Line (二俣線, Futamata sen) was built as an alternative route for the Tokaido Main Line and in particular as a backup for the bridge over Lake Hamana, which was considered potentially vulnerable to weather disruption. The Japanese military also supported the project as the new line would be less vulnerable to coastal attack than the existing section of the Tokaido Main Line. Operations began on April 17, 1935, between Kakegawa and Enshū-Mori. Construction work progressed in the opposite direction with the Futamata-Nishi Line (二俣線西, Futamata-Nishi sen) connecting Shinjohara with Mikkabi on December 1, 1936. This line was extended to Kaminobe by April 1, 1938, and the two lines were connected on June 1, 1940.

    The line was used as a detour for the Tokaido Main Line following damage to it caused by the Tōnankai earthquake in December 1944 and military actions in July 1945.

    Steam locomotives ceased service on the line in 1971, and all scheduled freight services were discontinued from 1984.

    Operations of the former Futamata Line were taken over by the third sector company Tenryū Hamanako Railroad in 1987,[1] the same year Japanese National Railways was privatized.

    Thirty-six features of the line (including bridges and station buildings) are registered tangible cultural properties of Japan.[2]
