Location

History

Nishi-Eigashima Station opened on 19 August 1923 as Eigashima-Nishiguchi Station on the line that today forms the Sanyo Electric Railway Main Line; it lies 24.9 kilometres from the line's terminus at Nishidai, in the city of Akashi, Hyōgo Prefecture, and is operated by the private Sanyo Electric Railway. The station was renamed Nishi-Eigashima on 1 April 1944 and has kept that name since. Its layout consists of two unnumbered elevated side platforms with the station building underneath.
