Location
History
Kōnohara-Enshin Station opened on December 3, 1994 with the inauguration of the third-sector Chizu Express Chizu Line, in the town of Kamigōri, Akō District, Hyōgo Prefecture. The construction plans originally listed the stop simply as 'Kōnohara', but the final name combines that of the surrounding district with Akamatsu Enshin, the Nanboku-chō warrior who lived at the nearby Shirahatajō Castle. The unstaffed elevated station has two opposed side platforms and operates as a passing loop on a single-track line; on August 10, 2009, services were briefly suspended by Typhoon No. 9, resuming on August 29.
Notes
Its name combines the local district of Kōnohara with that of Akamatsu Enshin, the 14th-century warlord whose seat at nearby Shirahata Castle is celebrated as one that 'never fell'.
