Oura-kaigan-dori

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

Ōura-kaigan-dōri opened on 27 December 1916 as simply Ōura on the second-phase line of the Nagasaki Electric Tramway. The line was single-track from opening, and Ōura served as a passing loop. The stop was renamed Ōura-kaigan-dōri ("Ōura Coast Avenue") — long-standing colloquial name — on 10 June 1983. In February 1992 the platforms were moved south toward Ishibashi. The Tsuki-machi – Ōura-kaigan-dōri segment was double-tracked in 1990 for the EXPO \'90 Nagasaki Travel Expo, but the section beyond remains single-track. It is stop number 48 on the Ōura Branch Line.

Because the stretch from Ōura-kaigan-dōri to the terminus at Ishibashi is single track, the line uses an automatic single-line block, with a trolley contactor on the overhead wire at the Ishibashi end ensuring that only one car occupies the section — although during peak tourist periods two or more cars may follow one another into it under a "continuation" working, using a token and a following-train marker.
