Possibly. There are many JR sen.... damnit JR
LINES. wrong Language haha. So depending on where you are, your station might work for ya and only one train is needed. Find your way to Yokohama.
The line you are looking for in romaji is the JR Keihin-touhoku (negeshi) line.
It's been nicknamed the "Blue line" by many people (cars have big blue stripes on the side).
If you are traveling on the correct line already (so say you transfer from the yamanote line/Tokyo loop at shinagawa) then just continue past Yokohama station.
If you are transferring trains at Yokohama-eki(station).
Then it's either track 3 or 4. I forget. You want the train bound for 大船 (Ofuna).
It's the third stop from Yokohama eki. Doors open on the left side.
石川町 is the kanji for ishikawacho. If you have J-text support on your computer.
There is an express train that goes until Sakuragicho-eki if. You don't want this train. But if you get on it by accident. No worries as you can get off at the next stop then just hop on the local train.
wow that was supposed to be quick note on the train line. hahaha. And just clued in (thanks for my 7am 12-hours of night shift on dock bottom brain) that you're already there since its midnight in Japan)
Yokohama FTW
