Banshū-Akō Station (播州赤穂駅, Banshū-Akō-eki) is a junction passenger railway station located in the city of Akō, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan, operated by the West Japan Railway Company (JR West).[1] The prefix Banshū, indicating the station's location in the old Harima province, was given to distinguish the station from Akaho Station (赤穂駅, Akaho-eki) on the Iida Line in Nagano Prefecture (now Komagane Station), which, although pronounced differently, use the same kanji characters as Akō.
