The Nishi-Funabashi Station ( Japanese 西 船 橋 駅 , Nishi-Funabashi-eki , German West-Funabashi Station ) is located in the city of Funabashi in Chiba Prefecture , Japan . On the web spiders of the Tōkyō Metro , the station bears the number T-23 for the Tōzai line .
history
On November 10, 1958, the station was opened by the Japanese National Railways for the Chūō-Sōbu line. On December 15, 1968, the station was relocated to a newly built area. On March 29, 1969, a train of the Tōzai line stopped for the first time at the station and the Tōkyō Metro began operations here. On April 8, 1969, freight operations were also started at the station and stopped again on November 1, 1986. After the station was expanded from a through station to a tower station, a train on the Musashino line stopped for the first time on October 2, 1978 at platforms 9 and 10 (now 11 and 12) that cross the other tracks. After a further expansion of the station, trains of the Keiyō line have also stopped since March 3, 1986 , but mainly on weekends to serve as a feeder for the Tokyo Disney Resort and the stadium of the Chiba Lotte Marines at home games. On April 27, 1996, the rapid transit line of the Tōyō Kōsoku was opened and tied through to the Tōzai line. A final major renovation was completed on January 15, 2005 with the opening of dila Nishifunabashi , a branch of a JR East-owned department store chain.
Type of construction and tracks
The station was originally built as a through station for the Chūō-Sōbu line. After additional construction work, the station was redesigned to the tower station in 1978 , since then the Musashino line (later also the Keiyō line) crosses the Chūō-Sōbu and Tōzai line and the Tōyō Kōsoku rapid transit railway. The station has a total of 10 platform tracks, which are divided into a total of 11 platforms. The discrepancy results from a Spanish solution for trains that end or start in Nishi-Funabashi, which is being used for the Sobu line .
On the lower level, the three tracks of the Chūō-Sōbu line run in an east-west direction and, directly south of it, the three tracks of the Tōkyō Metro and Tōyō-Kōsoku rapid-transit railway, which share the tracks. On the upper level, the four tracks of the Musashino and Keiyō line run in a north-south direction. The station hall and the track access are located between the two track levels.
