Tohoku Main Line (東北本線 Tohoku-honsen) is a 631.3 km railway line operated by the East Japan Railway Company. It starts at Ueno Station in Tokyo, passes through the cities of Saitama, Utsunomiya, Fukushima, Sendai, and Morioka, and Hachinohe, and ends in Aomori. (The Morioka - Hachinohe segment is operated by the Iwate Ginga Railway and Aomori Railway.)
The Tohoku Main Line runs mostly parallel to the Tohoku Shinkansen, and upon the Shinkansen's extension to Aomori, the remaining northern portion of the line is expected to be spun off to a third-sector railway operator.
The southern portion of the line is often referred to as the Utsunomiya Line, and overlaps the Keihin-Tohoku Line and Saikyo Line.
