Otemachi (Ehime)

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

The Takahama Line station at Ōtemachi opened on 3 April 1927 as 'Edomachi Station'. A separate stop on the street-running Ōtemachi tramway line opened on 1 May 1936, also as 'Edomachi'. On 1 July 1953 the two were renamed — the suburban-rail station became Ōtemachi Station and the tramway stop became Ōtemachi-Ekimae. The Ōtemachi-Ekimae stop received a safety zone at some point before 1967. Today the suburban-line station carries number IY09 and the tramway stop carries number 04.

Ōtemachi is best known for its diamond crossing — a flat-grade intersection between the Takahama Line suburban railway and the street-running Ōtemachi tramway. Such crossings were once common nationwide, but today Ōtemachi and neighbouring Komachi Station are the only places in Japan where a railway and a tramway still cross at grade.
