Takashimachō Station (高島町駅, Takashimachō-eki) is a
Blue Line (Line 3). It is 21.6 kilometers from the terminal of the Blue Line at Shōnandai Station
.
History
Takashimachō Station was originally opened as a station on the Keihin Line (presently the
Tōkyū Tōyoko Line) on May 18, 1928; however, the Tokyo Yokohama Railway renamed its station Hon-Yokohama Station (本横浜駅) on August 8, 1928. The JNR moved Yokohama Station
(and the Tōkaidō Main Line) north to the current location, thereby ending its service here on October 15, 1928, and the station reverted to its original name of Takashimachō Station on January 20, 1931.
On September 4, 1976 the underground station for the
Blue Line
was completed.
The above-ground Tōyoko Line ceased operations to this station on January 31, 2004. On the following day, February 1, 2004,
Shin-Takashima Station on the newly-constructed Minatomirai Line opened, with through service
to the Tōyoko Line available from that station instead, about 800 meters away. Since that time, as of March 2023, only the Municipal Subway Blue Line service remains at Takashimachō Station.
