Location

History

Uchinada Station opened on 14 July 1929 as Awagasaki-yūen-mae Station, serving the nearby Awagasaki Amusement Park on the Asanogawa Electric Railway. After the operator was absorbed by Hokuriku Railroad on 1 October 1945 the line became the Asanogawa Line. On 14 May 1960 the station was moved roughly 100 metres seaward and renamed Uchinada Station as a passenger station. With the closure of the seasonal Awagasaki-kaigan station on 8 July 1974 it became the line's terminus, a status it retains today. Uchinada has been selected for the fourth Chūbu Station Hundred, and from 12 February 2019 an arrangement of the town anthem of Uchinada has been used as the station's departure melody.

Notes

Until 8 July 1974 the Asanogawa Line continued 1.3 km beyond Uchinada to a seasonal station at Awagasaki-kaigan.
