Hamadera-ekimae

No publicly available departure data for this station.

Hamadera-ekimae Station (HN31) is the southern terminus of the Hankai Tramway Hankai Line, in Hamadera-kōen-chō 2, Nishi-ku, Sakai. It opened on 1 April 1912 with the southward extension of the original Hankai Electric Tramway. It is roughly two minutes' walk from Nankai's Hamadera-kōen Station on the Nankai Main Line. After successive operator changes — Nankai Railway in 1915, Kinki Nippon Railway in June 1944, Nankai Electric Railway in June 1947, and the present Hankai Tramway in December 1980 — the stop is now scheduled to be relocated to the east side of the Nankai station as part of the ongoing Nankai Main Line elevation project, to improve transfer convenience.

Hamadera-ekimae is scheduled to be relocated to the east side of Nankai's Hamadera-kōen Station as part of the ongoing Nankai Main Line elevation project — when the original plan to keep it on the west would have required a five-year bus substitution.
