History
Heiwajima Station opened on 1 February 1901 as Sawada Station on the Keihin Electric Railway, and was later renamed Gakkō-ura. Passing tracks were added in February 1950 to create a two-platform, four-track layout, and the station was subsequently moved slightly northward. It was renamed Heiwajima on 1 September 1961, and on 30 October that year the wooden station building was replaced with a two-storey reinforced-concrete structure; the level crossing inside the gates was abolished, a pedestrian subway was opened, and effective platform length was extended from four cars to six. The up-side platform was elevated on 20 January 1970 and the down-side followed on 1 December 1970, leaving the station fully elevated. Platforms were lengthened to twelve cars on 4 October 1997, and the Airport Express (now Express) began calling from the 16 May 2010 timetable revision. Platform doors entered service in 2021.
Notes
The departure melody, an arrangement of "Ii Yu da na" ("What a Nice Bath"), has been used since 24 February 2009, named for the nearby Heiwajima Onsen Kurhaus (now Tennen Onsen Heiwajima) — the first such melody adopted at a Keikyu station.
