The Iida Station ( Jap. 飯田駅 , Iida-eki ) is a train station on the Japanese island of Honshu , operated by the railway company JR Central . It is located in Nagano Prefecture , in the Iida City area of the Ina Basin .
description
Iida is a through station on JR Central 's Iida Line , which connects Toyohashi with Tatsuno . The station is the starting point for two long-distance connections: the Inaji express train ( 伊 那 路 ) runs south to Toyohashi twice a day, and the Misuzu express train ( み す ず ) to Tatsuno, Matsumoto and Nagano once a day . In regional traffic there is an approximate hourly service both northwards in the direction of Tatsuno (most of the trains are connected to Okaya on the Chūō main line ) and south to Tenryūkyō . In the 1960s to 1980s, the Japanese State Railways offered fast trains from Iida to Nagoya and Tokyo-Shinjuku without changing trains , but these were replaced by long-distance buses.
The station is on the edge of the city center, at the western end of the main street Chūō-dōri. The facility is oriented from southwest to northeast and has six tracks, three of which are used for passenger traffic. These are located on the main platform and on a central platform , which is connected to the station building on the south side by a covered overpass . Three tracks are used to park trains. To the west of the station there was once a loading ramp and several tracks for freight traffic. The bus stops on the station forecourt are served by several lines of the city bus company Iida and the company Shinnan Kōtsū , in addition there are long-distance bus routes of the companies Chūō Kōsoku Bus and Misuzu Highway Bus .
In 2016 the station counted an average of 959 passengers a day.
history
The railway company Ina Denki Tetsudō opened the station on August 3, 1923, together with the section leading from Moto-Zenkōji to this point. Iida was the terminus for a little over three years, until the opening of the section to Ina-Yawata on December 17, 1926. It then passed another eleven years until the entire Iida line between Toyohashi and Tatsuno was completed. The Ina Denki Tetsudō was nationalized on August 1, 1943. The Ministry of Railways was responsible for the operation , from 1949 the Japanese State Railways .
In 1960 the state railway replaced the original station building with a new building. For cost reasons, it stopped handling goods on January 21, 1984, and checked baggage on March 14, 1985. As part of the privatization of the state railway, the station passed into the ownership of the new company JR Central on April 1, 1987 . The latter undertook another new construction of the reception building and opened it in February 1992.
