Maita (Nagano)

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

Maita Station opened on 17 June 1921 as a stop on the Kawanishi Line of the Ueda Onsen Electric Tramway, ancestor of today's Ueda Electric Railway, in what is now Ueda, Nagano. The line was renamed the Bessho Line in 1939; a merger in 1943 placed it under Ueda-Maruko Electric Railway, the operator was renamed Ueda Kōtsū in 1969, and the railway was spun off as the present Ueda Electric Railway in 2005. Station numbering was introduced in August 2016 and Maita was assigned the code BE13. The unstaffed stop has one ground-level side platform with a waiting room near the centre.

The opening scene of the 1985 film Otoko wa Tsurai yo: Torajirō Ren'ai Juku was shot on the station's platform; in 2016 the station signs were updated with illustrations of the railway-mascot character "Yagisawa Mai," whose name combines this station and the adjacent Yagisawa.
