Location
History
The station opened on 13 May 1934 as Kanmaki-Sakurai-no-Eki Station on the Keihan New Keihan Line between Takatsuki-machi (now Takatsuki-shi) and Ōyamazaki — its name appended the literal kanji for 'eki' (post-station) because it served the historic Sakurai-no-Eki ruin nearby. When a new station named Sakurai-no-Eki (today's Minase Station) opened on 16 May 1939 the stop was renamed simply Kammaki. The October 1943 corporate merger placed the station under Keihanshin Kyūkō Dentetsu (later Hankyū), and on 1 December 1949 the New Keihan Line was redesignated the Kyoto Main Line. The station was elevated on 29 December 1963 after temporary platforms operating from 24 April 1963 alongside the Tōkaidō Shinkansen tracks. Barrier-free works finished on 29 July 2005 and station numbering as HK-73 took effect on 21 December 2013.
Notes
Kammaki sits at the northeastern extreme of Takatsuki city and is the closest Hankyū station to the Sakurai-no-Eki Site, a designated historic site marking a former post-station that once stood nearby — the original 1934 station name appended the kanji for 'eki' precisely to honour that connection. The 4.3 km gap to the next stop at Takatsuki-shi is the longest spacing on the entire Hankyū network.
