Location

History

Nishioguchi Station dates from 1928, when the privately owned Hekikai Electric Railway opened a temporary Hekiden Nishioguchi Station on 5 August, about 200 metres toward Shin-Anjō from the present site in what is now Nishio, Aichi Prefecture. The stop moved to its present location on 1 October that year, was withdrawn on 1 April 1929 and reopened on 3 April 1930, the Hekikai company then calling it Hekikai Nishioguchi. It took the name Nishioguchi when the Hekikai Electric Railway was absorbed into Nagoya Railroad (Meitetsu) on 1 March 1944. Track elevation works were completed on 2 July 1989, and a complementary doubling of the 600-metre section to Nishio Station finished on 14 June 2008. The Tranpass system was deployed on 14 November 2007 and replaced by Manaca on 11 February 2011, with Tranpass withdrawn on 29 February 2012. Only about 800 metres separate this station from Nishio.

Notes

In February 2006 Meitetsu told local authorities it would close stations with 300 or fewer passengers boarding and alighting per day; Nishioguchi was spared because stations in the built-up city area were excluded.
