Location
History
JR Nagase Station opened on 15 March 2008 alongside the passenger conversion of the freight-only Jōtō Line into the Osaka Higashi Line. The site had previously housed Hagusa Signal Box, used since 1943 for trains to pass on what was then a single track and abolished on 11 September 2003 in preparation for the conversion work. The provisional working name was Kashida Station, but JR West preferred the better-known place name Nagase; because a separate Nagase Station already exists on the Kintetsu Osaka Line about 700 m away, the prefix JR was added. The name was confirmed on 23 August 2007.
Notes
From opening JR Nagase has had no smoking corner, and the station is entirely non-smoking at all hours.
