Location
History
Ebisuchō Station opened on 1 December 1911 as a station and stop of the Hankai Electric Tramway. It became a station of the Nankai Railway through merger in 1915, then of Kintetsu (Kinki Nippon Railway) through merger in 1944, and of Nankai Electric Railway through line transfer in 1947. On 6 December 1969, a new Ebisuchō Station on the Osaka Municipal Subway Sakaisuji Line opened, adding an underground station. On 1 December 1980, the Hankai Line station became a station of the Hankai Electric Tramway through line transfer. With the privatisation of the Osaka Municipal Transportation Bureau on 1 April 2018, the Sakaisuji Line station became a station of the Osaka Metropolitan Rapid Transport Authority (Osaka Metro). On 1 February 2020, the Hankai Line platform was relocated 100 metres to the south, and the secondary name "Tsūtenkaku-mae" was established.
Notes
The Hankai Electric Tramway platform once had a comb-shaped arrangement of three platform faces and two tracks, but with the 2020 relocation to a new station 100 metres to the south it became a single side platform serving one track, and the former station site was converted into an indoor tennis school and a parking lot.
