History

Kyōteijō-mae Station (SW 05) is a Seibu Railway Tamagawa Line station in Koyanagi-chō 4-chōme, Fuchū, Tokyo — the southernmost station in the Seibu Railway network. It opened on 1 June 1919 as Tsunehisa Station, the then-terminus of the Tama Railway extension from Kita-Tama (today Shiraitodai). On 20 June 1922 the line was extended south to Koremasa, leaving Tsunehisa as an intermediate station. The station was renamed Kyōteijō-mae (in front of the boat racetrack) on 21 May 1954 after the adjacent Tamagawa Boat Race Course. Freight ended on 31 August 1967, and one side platform was abolished on 7 August 2005 ahead of February 2006 elevator installation, leaving a single-platform layout.

Notes

Since around March 2018, the empty space on the disused old up-line platform has displayed a used motorboat as promotion for the adjacent Tamagawa Boat Race Course — the facility the station was renamed after in 1954.
