Location
History
Ainoki Station opened on 1 September 1931 as Kyōden Station (経田駅) on the Toyama Electric Railway, about 700 metres further toward Kamiichi than its present site. It was renamed Ainoki on 1 October 1936 to avoid a clash with another Kyōden Station that opened the same day on the company's newly opened Uozu–Nishi-Mikkaichi section. On 1 January 1943 Toyama Electric Railway absorbed the other railway companies in Toyama Prefecture and renamed itself Toyama Chihō Railway; Ainoki Station itself was closed on 18 May 1944. The station reopened at its current location in Kamiichi as a tram stop on 15 April 1949. It is an unattended single-platform halt 11.3 kilometres from Dentetsu-Toyama on the Main Line.
Notes
The name change in 1936 was driven by a collision: on the same day a separate Kyōden Station opened on a different Toyama Electric Railway line, forcing a rename.
