Takanosu

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

Takanosu Station opened on 7 October 1900 as a station on the Japanese Government Railways, serving the town of Takanosu in what is now Kitaakita, Akita Prefecture. Operations on the JGR Aniai Line — the predecessor of today's Akita Nairiku Line — began here on 10 December 1934. The JGR became JNR after the Second World War, and the station was absorbed into JR East at privatisation on 1 April 1987. The Akita Nairiku Line was spun off to the third-sector Akita Nairiku Jūkan Railway in 1986; today two adjacent stations of the same name sit side-by-side, one operated by JR East on the Ōu Main Line and the other a bay-platform terminus of the Nairiku Line.

Despite sharing a name and being immediately adjacent, the JR East and Akita Nairiku Jūkan Railway stations at Takanosu are two separate operations with their own platforms — the latter's line ends in a single bay-platform stub.
