Location
History
Yorii Station opened on 7 October 1901 as the terminus of the Jōbu Railway (today's Chichibu Railway) extended from Kumagaya, and was pushed on to Hagure in April 1903. Tobu Railway's Tōjō Line reached Yorii on 10 July 1925, making it the line's terminal. The state's Hachikō Line arrived from Kodama on 25 January 1933 and was joined southward to Ogawamachi on 6 October 1934, giving three operators on one site. Chichibu Railway manages the shared station premises. Suica acceptance began on 8 February 2002, PASMO on Tobu in 2007 and Chichibu in 2022; the south plaza and "Yotteco" community hub opened in 2022–2023.
Notes
Yorii is the only town-level station in Japan served by three separate railway operators, and on 5 April 1959 an Imperial train carrying the Shōwa Emperor and Empress Kōjun ran between Harajuku and Yorii for a tree-planting ceremony.
