History
Maita Station opened on 17 June 1921 as a stop on the Kawanishi Line of the Ueda Onsen Electric Tramway, ancestor of today's Ueda Electric Railway, in what is now Ueda, Nagano. The line was renamed the Bessho Line in 1939, and after a sequence of mergers the operator's name changed to Ueda-Maruko Electric Railway, Ueda Kōtsū, and finally Ueda Electric Railway in 2005. Station numbering was introduced in August 2016 and Maita was assigned the code BE13. The unstaffed stop has one ground-level side platform with a waiting room near the centre.
Notes
The opening scene of the 1985 film Otoko wa Tsurai yo: Tora-san's Lovesick was shot on the station's platform; in 2016 the station signs were updated with illustrations of the railway-mascot character "Yagisawa Mai," whose name combines this station and the adjacent Yagisawa.
