Henashi

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Henashi Station opened on 30 July 1936 as a stop on the Japanese Government Railways' Gonō Line, serving the town of Fukaura in Aomori Prefecture. It is the westernmost station in Aomori Prefecture. Originally built with two opposed side platforms, the station lost its passing loop when it was made unstaffed on 1 October 1971, and a single side platform now serves a single bidirectional track. With the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 the station came under JR East. The current wooden station building, themed around the Kitamaebune coastal trading ships and the Sea of Japan, was completed in November 2010.

Henashi is the westernmost station in Aomori Prefecture; the 2010 rebuild used Akita cedar and a blue-painted exterior topped with a ship-shaped entrance ornament to evoke the Sea of Japan and the historic Kitamaebune trading route.
