Location
History
Mineyoshikawa Station began on 20 December 1924 as Mineyoshikawa Signal on the Japanese Government Railways' Ōu Main Line, serving the village of Yoshikawa in what is now Daisen, Akita Prefecture. It was elevated to a full station on 21 June 1930. JNR's 1987 privatisation transferred it to JR East. A new station building was completed in February 2004. The two opposed side platforms are connected by a footbridge, but the platform next to the station building is now reserved for Akita Shinkansen through traffic and is no longer used for stopping trains.
Notes
The platform adjacent to the station building is no longer used by trains stopping at Mineyoshikawa; it is reserved as a Shinkansen through track, so passengers must always cross the footbridge to board the conventional Ōu Main Line.
