Nishi-Tawaramoto

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

The station that is now Nishi-Tawaramoto opened in April 1918 as Tawaramoto Station on the Yamato Railway. A separate Tawaramoto Station was opened nearby in 1923 by the Osaka Electric Tramway, and the two have remained distinct stops. Services between Tawaramoto and Sakurai ended on 11 January 1944 and that section was abandoned in 1958. The Yamato Railway was later absorbed by the Shigi-Ikoma Electric Railway, and on 1 October 1964 the Shigi-Ikoma Electric Railway was in turn merged into the Kintetsu Railway, the station being renamed Nishi-Tawaramoto at that time. PiTaPa contactless ticketing became available on 1 April 2007. The station is the terminus of the Kintetsu Tawaramoto Line.
