History

Ikoma Station opened on 30 April 1914 as a stop on the Osaka Electric Tramway between Uehommachi and Nara, in present-day Ikoma, Nara Prefecture. The Shigi-Ikoma Electric Railway (today's Kintetsu Ikoma Line) reached the station on 1 April 1927. After successive corporate mergers — into Kansai Kyūkō Railway in 1941 and Kinki Nippon Railway in 1944 — the station became a Kintetsu single-operator station in October 1964 when Kintetsu absorbed the Shigi-Ikoma Electric Railway. The Higashi-Osaka Line (since 27 March 2006 the Keihanna Line) opened to Ikoma on 1 October 1986. Three island platforms serve six tracks under an overhead concourse.

Notes

Until 1964 the station was operated jointly by two companies under two different names; the merger that brought it under Kintetsu alone restored a single name — coincidentally identical to the older Shigi-Ikoma Railway station name.
