History
Tana Station opened on 1 April 1966 on Tōkyū's Den-en-toshi Line, in what is now Aoba Ward, Yokohama. The provisional name at the 1960 licensing was "Onda Station", taken from the place name of the time, but in September 1965 the operator's executive board settled on "Tana" — by Tōkyū's own account after a former municipal name covering the planned station site, though it has also been suggested that a different name was needed because neighbouring Aobadai Station then stood in Onda-chō as well. Tōkyū's Kodomonokuni Line now has an Onda Station of its own. Tana-chō was established around the station in 1971. Sitting between two express and semi-express stops (Aobadai and Nagatsuta) and served only by all-stations trains, Tana is the Den-en-toshi Line's least-used station. It has two opposed side platforms on an elevated structure, numbered DT21.
Notes
On 25 July 2001, lightning struck the adjacent Tana substation during a typhoon; abnormal current wrecked its switchboard and put the substation out of use, briefly halting the whole Den-en-toshi Line that day and, until 3 August, forcing a 30 per cent cut in peak-hour services and the suspension of express running.
