History
Echizen-Takada Station is a station of the West Japan Railway Company (JR West) Etsumi-Hoku Line (Kuzuryū Line), newly built on 20 May 1964 as a petition station between Ichijōdani Station and Ichinami Station on the Japanese National Railways Etsumi-Hoku Line; it is located in Takada-chō, Fukui, Fukui Prefecture. It was unstaffed from opening. It became a JR West station with the division and privatization of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. Heavy rain on 18 July 2004 suspended the entire Etsumi-Hoku Line; the section between Ichijōdani and Miyama stations, the last to remain out of service, reopened on 30 June 2007, resuming operation after about three years of suspension. It is a ground-level halt-type station with a single side platform serving one track, on the right-hand side facing towards Kuzuryūko.
