Location

History

Kaminagaya Station opened on 4 September 1976 as the southern terminus of the Yokohama Municipal Subway Blue Line's extension from Kamiooka. The Blue Line was extended further south to Maioka on 14 March 1985, demoting Kaminagaya to an intermediate station. An elevator entered service on 30 March 1998. A pedestrian deck connecting the north exit to an adjacent residential complex opened on 16 March 2007, and platform-edge doors followed on 21 July 2007. From the 18 July 2015 timetable revision the station became one of the stops served by the newly introduced rapid service.

Notes

Kaminagaya is the only elevated station on the Blue Line's Line 1 section; it also has the highest ridership of any Blue Line station with no interchange to another line. The Kaminagaya depot adjoins the station on its south-east side.
