Higashifujiwara

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

Higashi-Fujiwara Station opened on 23 July 1931 as the terminus of the Sangi Railway's Sangi Line out from Tomida; the line was extended to Nishi-Fujiwara on 23 December 1931, making Higashi-Fujiwara an intermediate stop. A new station building was completed on 27 November 2017, an occasion the Sangi Railway marked by selling commemorative tickets. A single island platform serves two tracks at this ground-level station, with several sidings to the west and a dedicated branch running north to the Taiheiyo Cement Fujiwara plant. Because freight switching is active, Higashi-Fujiwara was long the line's only consistently all-day staffed station outside Kintetsu-Tomida; it now operates as a special-duty station.

Higashi-Fujiwara was long the only Sangi Line station other than Kintetsu-Tomida with an all-day staff presence, owing to the Taiheiyo Cement freight switching operated from its dedicated branch line; the station has since been reclassified as a special-duty station.
