Demachiyanagi

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Demachiyanagi Station, in Sakyō-ku, Kyoto, is the northern terminus of the Keihan Ōtō Line and the southern terminus of the Eizan Electric Railway's Main Line. The above-ground Eiden platforms opened on 27 September 1925 as a stop on the Kyoto Dentō company's Eizan Heitan Line; railway operations transferred to Keifuku Electric Railroad in 1942 and then to a spun-off Eizan Electric Railway on 1 April 1986. The underground Keihan station opened with the Ōtō Line extension on 5 October 1989, ending more than a decade in which Demachiyanagi had no rail connection to another operator. The current "Keihan Demachiyanagi Building", which unites the ground-level Eiden station with the main entrance to the underground Keihan station, was completed on 24 June 1993.

The station's name combines two place names from opposite banks of the Kamo River: "Demachi" on the western side around Kawaramachi-Imadegawa, and "Yanagi" on the eastern bank where the platforms actually stand.
