>>1612003>The article only cited the short single-digit passenger section on Geibi Line.The line being cited is only an additional information attached by the news publisher. All reports said JR West didn't name specific lines, but they mentioned they have already been in discussion with localities along some line sections and they want to expand the coverage.
When they used the wording "local lines that are consistently making losses", I think the consistently making loses criteria actually cover everything outside Kansai, Thunderbird's service area, or Setouchi Bridge Line are lose making, but Sanyo Main Line, San'in Main Line, and Hakubi Line aren't "local lines".
