History

Kirihara Station opened on 28 June 1926 on the Nagano Electric Railway's newly inaugurated Nagano Line, in what is now the Kirihara district of Nagano city. A footbridge installed on 5 April 1975 replaced the existing level crossing inside the station. On 1 July 2021 the station was made fully unstaffed. It carries the line number N6 and is only 0.7 kilometres from the next stop at Shinano-Yoshida — a separation short enough that the connecting passage of Shinano-Yoshida is visible from the platform. The wooden station building dates from the line's opening.

Notes

Only 0.7 kilometres separate Kirihara from neighbouring Shinano-Yoshida — close enough that the next station's pedestrian deck is visible from the platform.
