History
Japanese National Railways (JNR) opened the station on 1 October 1963 as the western terminus of the then Gannichi Line (岩日線, Gannichi-sen) when the track was extended from Kawayama. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR West which then ceded control to Nishikigawa Railway on 25 July 1987.[2][3]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2011, the station was used by an average of 203 passengers daily.[1]
gollark: That is not the issue.
gollark: <@175686996461617162> When you upgrade, keep the existing CPU in sonething and overclock until it melts.
gollark: And I bet for the price you can get six cores now.
gollark: Given:- smaller process node (easier to add more stuff, increase clock)- faster RAM- faster IO- simultaneous multithreading- other generic IPC improvements- probably bigger or at least faster cache- higher clocksit's inevitable.
gollark: I'd say, in fact, that a modern dual core would beat it.
