— www.westjr.co.jp/global/en/ticket/westqr/kansaimini/ - area (read off the official map): 別紙1 map (WEST QR 関西ミニパス; red box: HARUKA needs a separate limited express ticket), grey 在来線 lines. Labelled: 舞子–神戸–大阪–新大阪–京都–山科; 保津峡–嵯峨嵐山–京都; 宝塚 diagonal into the Osaka loop, then a horizontal line to 京橋; Osaka loop (大阪, 京橋, 大阪城公園, 天王寺, JR難波 branch, 弁天町, 西九条); 西九条–ユニバーサルシティ–桜島; 天王寺–奈良 east–west line; 京都–奈良 vertical; a loop south of 奈良 back to the 天王寺–奈良 line (unlabelled corner, read as 高田: Sakurai and Wakayama lines); 天王寺 south and west to 関西空港 (日根野 corner unlabelled); 新大阪 curve down to the 天王寺–奈良 line (Osaka Higashi Line to 久宝寺, unlabelled junction). Unlabelled stubs drawn the same way as on the WEST QR 関西エリアパス map, where they are labelled/identifiable: stub south between 舞子 and 神戸 (和田岬 branch 兵庫–和田岬) and stub west off the 天王寺–関西空港 line (阪和線 羽衣 branch 鳳–東羽衣). Left out: the line east of 京橋 (Katamachi Line) runs past the 新大阪–久宝寺 line but stops just short of the 京都–奈良 line with no end station printed, so its end (somewhere before 木津) cannot be read. — map
