Sashima-raibu

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

Sasashima-raibu Station opened on 6 October 2004 with the rest of the Aonami Line, built on land formerly occupied by the Sasashima Freight Terminal that had been dismantled in 1986. The station name was taken from the Sasashima-raibu 24 urban renewal project that replaced the freight yard. A public preview run was held on 25 September 2004, and a station plaza was completed in March 2005 in time for Expo 2005, which used the area as a satellite venue. In September 2011 the Sasashima Komeno Pedestrian Bridge opened, spanning JR and Kintetsu tracks to connect the station with Kintetsu's Komeno Station roughly 7 minutes away on foot.

Though the station name pairs English "live" with the Japanese place-name Sasashima, the romanised form on signs and announcements is rendered phonetically as "Sasashima-raibu" rather than as "Sasashima-Live".
