Location
History
Tanigami Station opened on 28 November 1928 as part of the Kōbe Arima Electric Railway's initial Minatogawa - Denki-Arima section, now the Shintetsu Arima Line. The station was elevated and moved on 27 March 1988, and on 2 April 1988 the Hokushin Kyūkō Railway opened its Hokushin Line at the station. It was damaged in the 17 January 1995 Great Hanshin earthquake but resumed Hokushin services on 18 January and Shintetsu on 19 January. Station numbering arrived on 1 April 2014. On 1 June 2020 the Hokushin Line was transferred to Kobe City and became the Kobe Municipal Subway Hokushin Line, making the station a joint Shintetsu / Kobe Subway facility.
Notes
At 244 metres above sea level, Tanigami is the highest-altitude subway station in Japan.
