Location
History
Seibuen Station is the terminus of the 2.4-kilometre Seibu Seibuen Line, a spur from Higashi-Murayama in Higashimurayama, Tokyo, and is the nearest station to the Seibuen Velodrome and the Seibuen golf course; the neighbouring east gate of the Seibuen amusement park closed on 31 October 2020, leaving the park's single remaining entrance more than a kilometre away. The station traces its lineage to Murayama-Chosuichi-mae Station, which opened on 5 April 1930 and was renamed Sayama-Kōen in 1941 before closing in 1944. It reopened in 1948 as Murayama-Chosuichi and took its present name on 23 May 1950 when a new spur was branched off to serve the velodrome. The platform was relocated 400 metres north in 1961, the current station building was completed in July 1990, and the station became SK06 in fiscal 2012.
Notes
Although Seibuen sits in Tokyo, the prefectural boundary runs immediately north of the platforms — the namesake Seibuen Velodrome and amusement park, along with the Matsugaoka housing estate the station has also come to serve, all lie across the line in Saitama's Tokorozawa.
