Ogawa (Tokyo)

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

Ogawa Station opened on 21 December 1894 as a station on the Kawagoe Railway, predecessor of today's Seibu Kokubunji Line. In 1950 the Josui Line, forerunner of the Haijima Line, opened to Tamagawa-josui, adding service to Ogawa alongside the Kokubunji Line. The present station building, a bridge-form structure above the platforms, has been in use since 19 July 1964. Freight handling ended in 1981, after which Ogawa was the last of Seibu's stations within Tokyo to have handled freight. The station now has four tracks flanking two island platforms at ground level, numbered SK04 on the Kokubunji Line and SS31 on the Haijima Line, and its layout lets passengers change between the two lines on the same platform.

Part of today's Haijima Line right-of-way began as a wartime military-supply siding built from the station, which a nearby Bridgestone tire plant later used for freight before it was extended into the present passenger line.
