JR Ofunato Line

Hi All,

I'm going to the Iwate Tsunami Museum and I'll be taking the following transportations:

- JR Ofunato Line (from Ichinoseki to Kesennuma)
- JR Ofunato Line BRT (from Kesennuma to Kiseki-no-ippon- Matsu)

However I'm confused if the BRT was is just a bus transit instead of train. Is that correct?

Also, would you know what paying system they have on both? Can I use an IC Card?

If the BRT is a bus transit, does it accept IC cards?

Yes, it is basically a bus. You can see some pictures and descriptions here:

You can use IC cards (such as Suica, Pasmo, Icoca, etc.) or pay cash.

Thank you, Uji!
