Mishima Station (三島駅, Mishima-eki) is a railway station in the city of Mishima, Shizuoka, Japan, operated by the Central Japan Railway Company (JR Central). It is also a union station with the Izuhakone Railway. The station was also a freight terminal of the Japan Freight Railway Company (JR Freight), although freight operations are now only on an occasional basis.
Japanese writer Yukio Mishima was given his pen name from this station, since his editors were passing through on the way to a meeting with him. ('Yukio' came from the Japanese word for 'snow', which the editors saw on Mount Fuji from the train.)
