History

Kōzaki Station is a Wakayama Electric Railway Kishigawa Line stop in Kōzaki, Wakayama, with station number 04. It opened on 15 February 1916 with the inauguration of the Santō Light Railway's Ōhashi–Santō (today Itakiso) section. After successive company changes — to Santō Railway in November 1929, Wakayama Railway in April 1931, and through the 1 November 1957 merger to Wakayama Electric Tramway, then via the 1 November 1961 merger to Nankai Electric Railway's Kishigawa Line — it became a Wakayama Electric Railway station on 1 April 2006 when operations transferred to the new operator. The station consists of a single side platform with no station building; only the platform and a roof are present, with steps at the platform end connecting to the outside. An unstaffed stop, it has a Tetsudō Musume vending machine bearing the character 'Kōzaki Mīko' on the platform but no automated ticket gates.

Notes

Among the Kishigawa Line stations, Kōzaki was for a long time the only one still wearing a brush-stroked nameboard from the Nankai era. That board has since been replaced after Wakayama Electric Railway took over the line. The station also lends its name to the Tomytec Tetsudō Musume character 'Kōzaki Mīko'.
