Location
History
Kazurashimabashi-higashizume Station opened on 15 October 1910 with Tosa Electric Railway's (土佐電気鉄道) extension of the future Gomen Line from Kazurashimabashi-nishizume to Kako. Some sources give the original name as Kazurashimabashi-higashi-gan, changed first to the present higashizume and then briefly to Kazurashima-higashizume. The Kokubu-gawa railway bridge (国分川橋梁, the Kazurashima bridge) had been completed on 7 June 1910, ahead of the line opening. The old iron bridge served for over ninety years before it was replaced under Kōchi Prefecture's storm-surge defence programme in 2002; the track was re-aligned and this stop was relocated on 14 December 2002. The stop passed to Tosaden Kōtsū on 1 October 2014 with the operator merger. The stop itself lies on the Gomen Line's private right-of-way section, where the track runs independently of the road.
Notes
The Kazurashima ("vine island") beside the stop is a small hill that gives the bridge — and this stop — their name. In antiquity it really was an island in Urado Bay.
