History
Yamada Station opened on the Hankyū Senri Line on 23 November 1973, between the existing Minami-Senri and Kita-Senri stations in Suita, Osaka Prefecture. It was built to replace, in a permanent form, the temporary Bankokuhaku-Nishiguchi (Expo West Gate) Station that had served the 1970 Osaka World Expo about 800 m further north before being dismantled. A second platform opened on 1 June 1990 when the first phase of the Osaka Monorail Main Line came into service between Senri-Chūō and Minami-Ibaraki, making Yamada a transfer between the Hankyū and Monorail networks. A complex commercial redevelopment, "Due Hankyū Yamada", followed in November 2003.
Notes
When the monorail station opened in 1990 a high-voltage transmission line ran directly above its eastern platform end, forcing engineers to drop the roof height; the lines have since been moved and raised, but the lowered roof section remains.
