JR Nagase Station (JR長瀬駅, JR Nagase-eki) is a railway station on the West Japan Railway Company (JR-West) Osaka Higashi Line in Higashiōsaka, Osaka Prefecture, Japan.
As of 2013, Nagase Station is the only station on the Osaka Higashi Line without any train stations nearby.
Layout[]
The station has an island platform serving two tracks elevated.
1 | ■ Osaka Higashi Line | for Hanaten |
2 | ■ Osaka Higashi Line | for Kyūhōji |
History[]
The station was initially planned under the provisional name Kashida Station (柏田駅, Kashida-eki). JR West preferred Nagase, a widely known place name, for the definite station name rather than obscure Kashida, but since there is a separate Nagase Station on Kintetsu Osaka Line, the station was finally named JR Nagase.
