History

Takagi Station opened on 30 May 1899 as a stop on the privately-built Chūetsu Railway. The line was nationalised on 1 September 1920, becoming part of JNR's Chūetsu Line, and the Takaoka–Jōhana section was renamed the Jōhana Line on 1 August 1942. Parcel and freight handling ended on 1 October 1970, when the station was simultaneously downgraded to an unstaffed stopping place. It passed to JR West at the 1 April 1987 privatisation of JNR, and a replacement station building of 84 m² in lightweight steel-frame construction was completed on 25 December the same year. ICOCA IC-card acceptance is scheduled to begin on 14 March 2026.

Notes

Takagi sits where the boundary between Tonami and Nanto cities zig-zags through the platform, a relic of an 1899 compromise between two former neighbouring villages (Higashi-Nojiri and Nojiri) that built the station jointly at their midpoint.
