Lines


Shin-Aomori Station is the northern terminus of the Ōu Main Line from Fukushima via Akita (a distance of 486.3 km (302.2 mi)), although most trains continue to Aomori. It also forms the northern terminus of the high-speed Tōhoku Shinkansen line from Tokyo (a distance of 674.0 km (418.8 mi)), operated by JR East, and the starting point of the Hokkaido Shinkansen to Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto (a distance of 148.9 km (92.5 mi)), operated by JR Hokkaido.




Station layout


The conventional Ōu Main Line has a single island platform, serving two tracks. In addition to regular Ōu Main Line trains, the station serves two round-trips per day of Aoimori Railway trains, as well as two round-trips of the irregular Resort Asunaro (direct to Noheji and the Ōminato Line). Upon the opening of the Tōhoku Shinkansen extension on 4 December 2010, the station became the southern terminus of Hakuchō Limited express services to Hakodate via the Tsugaru Kaikyō Line, which ceased upon commencement of the Hokkaidō Shinkansen in March 2016.
The Shinkansen portion of the station, which opened on 4 December 2010, consists of two elevated island platforms serving four tracks. The platforms are 263 meters long and capable of handling 10-car trains. The station has a Midori no Madoguchi staffed ticket office.
Previously, Shin-Aomori Station was an unmanned station consisting of a single side platform for bi-directional traffic.
