• Kengun Line: Shogyokoko-mae ⇄ Kuwamizu Kosaten

Hatchō-baba opened on 16 April 1959 on the Kumamoto City tram Kengun Line as stop 21, served by both A- and B-system trams.

The "Hatchō-baba" (eight-chō horse-training ground) in the stop's name is the popular name for the cedar avenue leading to Kengun Shrine — officially Kengun-Jinja Sugi-baba — said to have been planted by Katō Kiyomasa as a military training ground for warhorses.
