Location

History

Niragawa Station is a Tōbu Railway station on the Isesaki Line in Ōta, Gunma, located 91.8 km from the Asakusa terminus and numbered TI-17. It opened on 25 October 1932 after the then-village of Niragawa offered 1,500 yen towards construction costs the preceding August. The station has a single island platform serving two tracks, with the station building on the north side connected by a footbridge; a PASMO simplified-gate system is installed. Station numbering was applied on 17 March 2012. From the timetable revision of 18 March 2006, daytime workings were split at Kuki, leaving the limited express Ryōmō as the only daytime train from the station to Asakusa.

Notes

The station owes its existence to a 1,500-yen donation from the then-Niragawa village in August 1932 to cover its construction cost.
