Kita-Takasaki

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

The station opened on 15 October 1885 as Iizuka Station with the Takasaki–Yokokawa railway, and was renamed Kita-Takasaki on 1 August 1919 to avoid confusion with Iizuka Station in Kyūshū. Freight handling ceased on 21 October 1981 and baggage on 1 February 1984. The station was unstaffed from 14 March 1985 but became staffed again at JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987 when it passed to JR East. A north exit building opened in 1997, and in March 2001 the south building was rebuilt as the current second-generation station house. The station was added to the Tokyo Suburban Area on 14 March 2009, when Suica acceptance also began.
