Location
History
Myōrenji Station opened on 14 February 1926 on the Tōkyū Tōyoko Line as Myōrenji-mae, taking its name from the adjacent Myōrenji Buddhist temple, which had granted land to the railway in exchange for the station's construction. Original facilities included a freight platform and a crossover, which were removed in 1935 and the 1960s respectively. The stop was renamed simply Myōrenji on 1 January 1931. A foot crossing was replaced by an underpass in the mid-1960s, and a second ticket gate on the downbound platform opened in June 2002, adding waiting rooms and toilet facilities. The station is assigned number TY17 in the Tōkyū station numbering system.
Notes
Because its platforms are partly at ground level and partly elevated, Myōrenji is the only stop on the entire Tōkyū Tōyoko Line that has neither an elevator nor an escalator.
