Location
History
Kōsoku Nagata Station opened on 7 April 1968 with the inauguration of the Kobe Rapid Railway, replacing the nearby surface-level Nagata Station of the Sanyō Electric Railway that closed at the same time and stood roughly 100 m to the west. The station was heavily damaged by the Great Hanshin earthquake on 17 January 1995 and reopened in stages: service between this station and Nishidai resumed on 18 June, with full line restoration on 13 August. From 2009 a barrier-free east concourse and east exit were added, providing a second evacuation route that the previously single-exit subterranean station had lacked. Operating responsibility shifted to Hanshin Electric Railway in October 2010, leaving Kobe Rapid Railway as the line's Category-III infrastructure holder.
Notes
The "Kōsoku" ("rapid") prefix in the station name dates from when Kobe Rapid Railway operated the line directly, and was retained partly to distinguish the stop from Kobe Electric Railway's separate Nagata Station 1.2 km away in the same ward.
