Location
History
Kusurimizu Station (F49) is on Kintetsu's Yoshino Line in Kusurimizu, Ōyodo, Yoshino District, Nara. It opened on 7 February 1924 as a new station between Yoshinoguchi and Shimoichiguchi on the Yoshino Railway. The Yoshino Railway was absorbed into the Osaka Electric Tramway on 1 August 1929, becoming the OET Yoshino Line, then passed to Kansai Express Railway on 15 March 1941 (with the OET–Sangū Express merger) and to Kintetsu on 1 June 1944 via wartime consolidation. PiTaPa was introduced on 1 April 2007. The station has a single side platform on the right side facing Yoshino, set on a hillside and reached by stairs — there is no station building and passengers go directly onto the platform from the stairs. Because the layout is a single 'stick' track, both Yoshino-bound and Ōsaka-Abenobashi-bound trains use the same platform.
Notes
Despite being on the Yoshino Line, Kusurimizu sits within walking distance of JR West's parallel Wakayama Line, but the Wakayama Line has no station here. The station name comes from the Yakusui Daishi temple just outside, and the daily passenger count is the lowest of any conventional-rail station in Nara Prefecture (the lowest among JR Wakayama Line stations being Wakigami).
