• Sanyo Electric Railway Main Line: Nishi-Eigashima ⇄ Nakayagi

Eigashima Station opened on 19 August 1923 with the inauguration of the Kobe-Himeji Electric Railway. It passed to Ujigawa Denki when that company absorbed the Kobe-Himeji line on 1 April 1927, and then to Sanyo Electric Railway on 6 June 1933 when Ujigawa Denki spun off its railway division. The station building was rebuilt and an underpass linking the two platforms was opened in December 1970. From 1 August 2019 the station carries the secondary name "Nikkō Mae" (Nearest to Nikkō) under a naming-rights agreement with the nearby Nikkō Corporation. The station has two opposed side platforms at grade with the ticket gate at the Himeji end and is now unstaffed.
