Heavy snow in JR Iiyama line 豪雪地帯を走るJR飯山線
JR Iiyama Line has a record of 7.85 meters snowfall in February 1945 at Morimiyanohara station.
I once made a daytrip to this line from Tokyo using Joetsu Shinkansen and Nagano Shinkansen.
These Shinkansen usually operate smoothly even in snowy weather. But conventional Joetsu line and Iiyama line frequently stop services according to the weather condition, so it is important to check the recent service information.
