Delays & suspensionsLive status →Japanese only
Step-free accessStation list → PThere is a step between platform and train, so station staff or the driver help wheelchair users on and off: call Motosu Station (0581-34-3768) at least 2 days ahead so a car with a ramp can be arranged. Ogaki, Morera Gifu and Oribe stations have ramps to the platform; each station page says whether wheelchairs can get in.
IC cards and payment in detail

Transport IC cards (TOICA, Suica etc.), credit cards and the Japan Rail Pass cannot be used: the Tarumi line is cash only. Day passes can be bought cashless online (RYDE PASS app, 7-Eleven). If you entered JR at Ōgaki with an IC card, tell the Tarumi window or the driver: you get an IC processing slip to settle the JR part at a TOICA station. P
