History

Higashi-Shinminato Station is a station on the Man'yō Line in Yahata-machi, Imizu, Toyama Prefecture. It was established as "Shinminato-Higashiguchi Station" on 12 October 1930 with the opening of the Etchū Railway's Nishi-Koshinokata–Shinminato-Higashiguchi section. On 18 August 1932 it was relocated toward Koshinokata and renamed "Higashi-Shinminato Station," and on 9 November of the same year it became an intermediate station when the line was extended to Shōgawaguchi. After Nippon Kōshūha Jūkōgyō (now Nippon Kōshūha Kōgyō) established its Toyama plant nearby in 1937, the station was renamed "Higashi-Shinminato-Kōshūha-mae Station" in 1939 and "Kōshūha-mae Station" in 1942, but reverted to Higashi-Shinminato Station at the end of the war in August 1945. It was transferred successively to Toyama Chihō Railway's Imizu Line following the 1943 merger, to Kaetsunō Railway's Shinminato Port Line in 1966, and to the Man'yō Line in 2002.

Notes

During the war the station was renamed "Higashi-Shinminato-Kōshūha-mae Station" and then "Kōshūha-mae Station" after the nearby Nippon Kōshūha Jūkōgyō plant, and it remains the nearest station to that company's Toyama plant today.
