Location

History

Kasumigaoka Station opened on 27 March 1929 as a stop of the Osaka Electric Tramway (later Kintetsu Railway). The line was suspended on 11 February 1944 as a wartime non-essential railway, and reopened on 1 August 1945. The platform canopy was removed in July 2010.

Notes

Kasumigaoka exists only because the Ikoma Cable Line is a reversible-cable funicular: while one car pauses at Kasumigaoka the other car pauses at the sister station Umeyashiki. Through services skip both stops, and the few non-through trains that do stop see almost no passengers, so the station is sometimes treated as a hikyō-eki (secret-spot remote station). It is reached only by stepping across a class-3 grade crossing from the mountain path.
