The Banetsu West Line (磐越西線 Ban’etsu-sai-sen) is a railway line in Japan operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East). It runs between Kōriyama Station in Kōriyama Fukushima and Niitsu Station in Niigata Niigata. The name Banetsu is taken from the first characters of the names of the ancient provinces of Iwaki (磐城) and Echigo (越後) which the Banetsu East and Banetsu West lines connect.
