There was a time that even some railway corporations omitted the old provincial name and called the stations with the old provincial names omitting added part; for example, in case of Kintetsu Corporation, announcements in the trains, broadcasting in the station precincts, and in the rollsigns, the old provincial names were omitted up to 2004 (an example: Yamato Saidaiji Station was called Saidaiji Station).
事業者側でもそのような扱いをしている場合があり、たとえば近畿日本鉄道では、2004年ごろまで車内放送・駅構内放送・方向幕では旧国名を省略していた（例：大和西大寺駅→西大寺）。
