History
Yokoyama Station opened on 18 December 1928 as Dentetsu Yokoyama Station on the same day the Sanda Line was inaugurated, in Minamigaoka 2-chōme, Sanda, Hyōgo, at an altitude of 167 metres. On 9 January 1947 it passed to Shinyū Miki Electric Railway (today's Kobe Electric Railway, Shintetsu) after the merger with Miki Electric Railway. New buildings and a relocation 100 metres toward Sanda were begun in December 1987 and entered service on 20 May 1990; the station was renamed Yokoyama on 1 April 1988 in the interim. The Sanda Line section from Yokoyama to Sanda was double-tracked on 24 March 1991, and the Kōen-Toshi Line from Yokoyama to Flower Town opened on 28 October 1991, making the station the line's zero-kilometre origin.
Notes
All Kōen-Toshi Line trains run through Yokoyama via the Sanda Line to terminate at Sanda Station, even though Yokoyama is the line's zero-kilometre point — the 0-km post is set here. Two monuments commemorating the Kōen-Toshi Line opening stand at the station: one cast in concrete on the cutting wall, visible only from the platform, and another in the corner of the forecourt.
