History
Emmachi Station is a Sagano Line (San'in Main Line) stop in Nakagyō-ku, Kyoto, operated by JR West. It opened on 23 September 2000 with the elevated double-tracking of the Nijō–Hanazono section. From 2001 a portion of rapid trains began stopping, and by 2002 all rapids did. Station number JR-E05 was introduced in March 2018. Although on a double-tracked elevated structure, the absence of any internal switches makes it formally classed as a halt rather than a full station.
Notes
The site once faced Ninomiya's Kyoto main store, which was transferred to Midori Denka following the electronics chain's bankruptcy.
