Horomui

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

Horomui Station traces its origins to a flag stop opened on 13 November 1882 by the government-run Horonai Railway, roughly 800 m towards Ebetsu from the present location, near the right bank of the Horomui River. It was upgraded to a full station within months, was transferred to the Hokkaido Colliery and Railway Company in 1889, and was nationalised in 1906. Operations passed to JR Hokkaido at the 1987 JNR break-up. The current elevated station building replaced an earlier ground-level structure on 20 March 1998, and automatic fare gates were introduced later that year. The station serves a fast-growing commuter suburb of Sapporo on the Hakodate Main Line.

The Midori-no-Madoguchi ticket office here stays open until 23:30, making it the latest-closing such window outside the fare gates of any station in Japan.
