Location

History

Tachiki opened on 25 April 1946 as Tachiki Signal Stop on the Ministry of Transport's San'in Main Line, between Wachi and Yamaga in Kyoto Prefecture, and was upgraded to a full passenger station on 1 November 1947. Freight handling ended on 1 October 1961, parcel handling and full staffing on 1 December 1971. With the division and privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR West. It came under the Maizuru Rail Division on 1 April 1991, returned to direct Fukuchiyama Branch control in July 2006, and is today managed from Fukuchiyama Station. A timetable revision on 13 March 2021 restored stops by all local trains, after some had bypassed the station from 2012.

Notes

Unusually for a local station on the Sonobe–Ayabe stretch of the San'in Main Line, Tachiki was never converted to a single-track-through layout: the points at both ends are Y-shaped, so reverse-direction departures are impossible and the two platforms are worked strictly as separate up and down tracks.
