History

Kita-Higashiguchi Station opened on 30 April 1912 as a stop on the Takamatsu Electric Tramway in Takamatsu, Kagawa Prefecture. On 1 November 1943 wartime corporate consolidation merged the tramway operator into the Takamatsu Kotohira Electric Railway (Kotoden), giving the station its present operator. The station gained a passing loop, allowing trains to cross there, on 23 June 1946, and a new platform was completed on 23 December 2005. Today the station sits 3.4 km from the Kotoden Nagao Line terminus at Kawaramachi and 5.1 km from Takamatsu-Chikkō, with the designation N05. It has a single island platform served by a rain shelter; there is no station building, and the station is unattended after staffing was withdrawn as a cost-saving measure.

Notes

Although currently unstaffed, Kita-Higashiguchi is designated a tochu-gesha ("break-of-journey permitted") station despite the lack of personnel to clip tickets.
