Sagami-Ōno is a separation station on the Odakyū Odawara Line from Shinjuku in central Tokyo to Odawara . From this the Odakyū Enoshima Line branches off to Katase-Enoshima . Both lines are operated by the Odakyū Dentetsu railway company. In Sagami Ōno just hold one third of all supplementary charge Romancecar -Schnellzüge. They connect Shinjuku with Hakone-Yumoto , Gotemba and the Enoshima line, with the range being greater on weekends and public holidays than on working days. All express trains of the types Semi Express , Commuter Semi-Express , Express and Rapid Express to and from Odawara or Katase-Enoshima also stop here . Into town in the first two types of trains are Yoyogi Uehara for Chiyoda-line of the Tokyo subway by bound . Local trains on the Odawara Line usually connect Shinjuku with Hon-Atsugi . A total of 16 or 17 trains per hour are offered in each direction during the day, and up to 24 during rush hour.

On the Enoshima line, the Express and Rapid Express together form approximately 20-minute intervals. On working days, Fujisawa is the terminus in all cases, on weekends and public holidays almost all express trains continue to Katase-Enoshima. Local trains run every ten minutes and are mostly limited to the connection between Sagami-Ōno and Katase-Enoshima (the northern terminus of individual trains is in Machida ).

Sagami-Ōno is an important hub for local and regional bus transport. There is a bus station with eight stops on the western station forecourt. These are served by over a dozen lines operated by the Kanagawa Chūō Kōtsū company, plus airport shuttles operated by the Keihin Express Bus and Keisei Bus companies . Another line from Kanagawa Chūō Kōtsū stops in front of the eastern exit .

Depot

The station is in the district of the same name, which belongs to the South District ( Minami-ku ) . There is a smaller business district and the Kitasato University campus nearby . The facility is oriented from northeast to southwest and has six tracks, all of which are used for passenger traffic. The two outer pairs of tracks lie on completely covered central platforms , while the middle pair of tracks has no platform and is used by trains that do not stop here. The station building has the shape of a riding station that spans the entire complex. Above it rise two high-rise buildings that house the Sagami-Ōno Station Square shopping center ( 相 模 大野 ス テ ー シ ョ ン ス ス ク ア Einkaufszentrum ) and a hotel. Both facilities are owned by the Odakyu Group . At the southern end of the facility, a footbridge leads over the track field.

About two hundred meters southwest of the station, at its previous location, the lines separate, with the western track of the Enoshima line being led over the tracks of the Odawara line with a flyover structure , thus enabling crossings without height . One of the Odakyū Dentetsu railway depots is located in this area .

In the 2018 fiscal year, an average of 130,078 passengers used the station every day.

history

When the Odakyū Enoshima Line opened on April 1, 1929, the area around the junction was not built over, so there was initially only one signal here. At that time, the terminus of the local trains was the Shin-Hanamachida station (now Machida ), one and a half kilometers further northeast . Nine years later, the Japanese Imperial Army relocated their communications training facility from Suginami here, justifying the construction of an additional station at the junction. This was appropriately named Tsūshin-gakkō ( 通信 学校 ) and began operating on April 1, 1938. As the Pacific War progressed , military installations were removed from public maps as a counter-espionage measure . Accordingly, the station received its current name Sagami-Ōno on January 1, 1941.

After the end of the war, the importance of the station steadily increased. Express trains stopped here from October 1, 1946, express trains from April 1, 1951. To relieve existing facilities, Odakyū Dentetsu opened a new depot on October 19, 1962, just west of Sagami-Ōno. Since the station was increasingly reaching its capacity limits, the Odakyū Dentetsu built a new building around 200 meters east of it and put it into operation on September 1, 1996.
