Location
History
Tamboāto Station opened on 27 July 2013 on the Kōnan Railway Kōnan Line in the village of Inakadate, Aomori Prefecture, brought forward from its planned 1 August opening date. Construction was funded entirely by Inakadate Village at a cost of 31.2 million yen, with the explicit purpose of providing access to the village's celebrated rice-paddy art (tanbo art) displayed each summer in the surrounding fields. The station has a single side platform with a roofed waiting shelter and is unstaffed. It is normally closed from 1 December to 31 March each year, with all trains passing through during the winter shutdown.
Notes
Three retired Kōnan Railway diesel cars — KiHa 2105, KiHa 2107 and KiHa 2230 — were preserved beside the station as a brightly painted rest area before being scrapped due to deterioration.
