History

The station opened on 3 May 1922 as the first Nishi-Matsumoto Station on the Chikuma Railway, which became Chikuma Electric Railway on 31 October 1922. The stop was renamed Nagisa around 1 May 1927, and the operating company became Matsumoto Electric Railway on 2 December 1932. Nagisa was redesignated from a station (teishajō) to a halt (teiryūjo) in January 1963. The operator was renamed Alpico Kōtsū on 1 April 2011. On 7 September 2012 the station nameboards were redrawn to incorporate the Kamikōchi Line image character Endō Nagisa, drawn by a female employee of the company; for the operator's 100+1st anniversary on 30 March 2021 they were redrawn again with a stylised version of the character. On 15 August 2021 the Tagawa bridge between Nishi-Matsumoto and Nagisa was damaged by heavy rain, suspending services; substitute buses ran between Matsumoto and Shinmura from 16 August, with Nagisa's bus stop placed at the Ryōjima-guchi stop on the Yamagata Line about 500 m to the south. Train services resumed between Nagisa and Shin-Shimashima on 8 October 2021 and through to Matsumoto on 10 June 2022. Suica is planned to begin at the station in spring 2027.

Notes

Nagisa is the source of the personal name of the Kamikōchi Line mascot Endō Nagisa, whose name is taken from this station and from Endō Station on the same line. The station formerly had a freight yard alongside, but by 2024 the site had already been given over to housing lots and other uses.
