An exception is Settsu Station in Osaka Prefecture in which the old provincial name is used as the name of the station without attaching the name of the city; however, Settsushi Station will be open in 2010 along the Hankyu Kyoto Main Line; Iwaki Station in Fukushima Prefecture accords with the old provincial name and in it the city name is not added, but the name is in the Japanese syllabary characters.
例外として、大阪府の摂津駅は市名と一致する旧国名が（但し、2010年に阪急京都本線の摂津市駅が開業予定）、福島県のいわき駅は旧国名をひらがな化した市町村名がそのまま駅名になっている。
