Location
History
Nakanoshima Station opened on 1 November 1927 as a station on the privately operated Nambu Railway in what is now Tama Ward, Kawasaki, Kanagawa Prefecture. Freight operations began in 1929. The line was nationalised on 1 April 1944 and the station came under Japanese National Railways control. In December 1945 the station was relocated about 400 metres toward Noborito Station; scheduled freight handling ended after 1955. JNR's 1 April 1987 privatisation brought the station into JR East, with the line continuing to operate as the Nambu Line between Kawasaki and Tachikawa. The station is now staffed and sits between Inadazutsumi and Noborito on the route, 19.5 km north of the southern terminus at Kawasaki.
Notes
The station was shifted roughly 400 metres toward Noborito in December 1945, so the present location is not the one used at opening in 1927.
