History

Abikomae Station's origins date to 1903, when the Koya Railway opened a temporary Abiko Kannon-mae halt for pilgrim traffic; the halt was renamed Wakamiya in 1912 and a permanent Abikomae Station was opened on 10 October 1912 on the Koya Tozan Railway between Wakamiya (a halt abolished in 1917) and Sakai-Higashi. Through successive operator changes it became an Osaka Koya Railway station in 1915, a Nankai Railway station in 1922, a Kinki Nippon Railway station in 1944, and finally a Nankai Electric Railway station on 1 June 1947. Station numbering NK54 was introduced on 1 April 2012. The station has two side platforms; gates are independent per platform and there is no in-station crossover.

Notes

Despite the name, the namesake Abiko Kannon temple is a roughly 20-minute walk from the station, so most pilgrims use the Midosuji Line's Abiko Station or JR's Abikocho instead.
