Location
History
Hagyū Station opened on 10 August 1931 with the inauguration of the Yonesaka East Line's Imaizumi - Tenoko section. It serves the town of Iide in Yamagata Prefecture and sits 27.3 rail kilometres from the Yonezawa terminus of the Yonesaka Line. Freight handling was withdrawn in October 1972 and parcel services in two stages through 1974 and 1975, when the station became unstaffed. The station passed to JR East at the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. The waiting-room was rebuilt around 1994. Services have been suspended since the rainstorm damage of 3 August 2022 closed the sections either side of the station.
Notes
The area around the station is central to the "Iide Battery Valley" initiative, and in 2023 Japan's first professional university specializing in electric mobility systems opened there.
