Location
History
Tōbu-shijō-mae Station opened on 11 November 1989 on the JR West Kansai Main Line (Yamatoji Line) between Hirano and Tennōji, in Higashisumiyoshi Ward, Ōsaka. It stands on the east (right) bank of the Imagawa, with the north–south Imazatosuji arterial running along its eastern side; the first-generation Kudara passenger station, on the west bank, closed in 1963, and the present Kudara freight terminal opened east of Imazatosuji the same year, after which lobbying by local residents for a passenger station led to the opening of the present station. Automated gates entered service on 11 July 1998, ICOCA on 1 November 2003, and the Osaka Loop and Yamatoji operations control system on 4 October 2009; the Midori-no-Madoguchi ticket office closed on 8 March 2015. Elevators and an east entrance opened on 9 March 2019, and station operations were contracted out from 1 September 2021.
Notes
The first revenue train to call at the station did so at 11 minutes past 11 on 11 November 1989 — a time noted as an "all ones" sequence.
