Location
History
Takezawa Station opened on 6 October 1934 on the Japanese National Railways Hachikō Line in what is now the town of Ogawa, Saitama Prefecture, and passed to JR East on 1 April 1987 at the JNR breakup. The station originally had two opposed side platforms forming a passing loop on the otherwise single-track unelectrified line, with the station building on the south side and the platforms linked by a footbridge. On 15 October 2016 the up-direction platform was decommissioned and its track lifted, leaving only the former down platform in service for trains in both directions. The station building was rebuilt in 2008 and the stop is unstaffed; in fiscal 2010 it averaged just 31 boarders daily.
Notes
Tōbu-Takezawa Station — on a different line entirely — lies about 500 m from JR's Takezawa Station.
