Shinchi-Chūkagai

No publicly available departure data for this station.

Shinchi-Chūkagai opened on 16 November 1915 as Tsuki-machi on the same day the Nagasaki Electric Tramway first phase began. The original platform sat south of the present spot, where the line ran 3.7 km from Tsuki-machi to Byōin-shita. The stop was abolished on 25 December 1920 when the Tsuki-machi – Furumachi extension shifted the route, and reopened on 5 October 1961 about 40 years later when the Ōura Branch Line was re-routed to diverge here rather than at the now-defunct Sembachō stop. Renamed Shinchi-Chūkagai on 1 August 2018 to direct visitors to the adjacent Nagasaki Chinatown, it is stop number 31 and one of the network's busiest transfer points.

Long Nagasaki Electric Tramway's busiest transfer point, the Shinchi-Chūkagai platforms during the school-trip season routinely overflow onto the carriageway, prompting a 2020 decision to allow alternative transfers at Shiyakusho to help spread the load.
