Location

History

Shin-Hashima Station opened on 11 December 1982 as the terminus of the Meitetsu Hashima Line, in the city of Hashima, Gifu Prefecture, directly adjacent to Gifu-Hashima Station on the Tōkaidō Shinkansen. It is the westernmost station of the Meitetsu network. On 3 January 2002 a local train slipped on snow and struck the buffer stop; platforms were temporarily shortened with door-cuts before the stop position was moved 10 m back. The station was de-staffed on 20 November 2007 and Transpass arrived on 14 December 2007. The Manaca IC card became usable on 11 February 2011. On 1 April 2019 an elevator and multi-purpose toilet completed barrier-free conversion of the entire Hashima Line.

Notes

Although built to connect Gifu with the Shinkansen, most users from Gifu City actually access the high-speed network via Nagoya Station — leaving Shin-Hashima mainly serving local commuters and students of nearby Gifu College of Nursing.
