is a railway station and a metro station in Nagata-ku, Kobe, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan.
The JR West station opened under JNR ownership on 1 April 1954. After the privatization of JNR in 1987, the station became incorporated into the JR Kobe Line when it began services the next year.
The Kobe Municipal Subway station opened in 1977 as part of the first phase of the Seishin-Yamate Line, initially serving as the terminus of the subway line (the line would be extended to in 1983).[1]
On 17 January 1995, the station sustained damage during the Great Hanshin earthquake on 17 January 1995, and remained closed for a short amount of time as repairs were taking place. Normal service on the JR Kobe Line resumed on 30 January while the subway resumed operations on 16 February of that year.
In 1996, an elevator and escalator were added to the JR West station as part of the station's renovation following the earthquake.
The Kaigan Line platforms opened on 7 July 2001.
Station numbering was introduced to the JR West platforms in March 2018 with Shin-Nagata being assigned station number JR-A65.[2] [3]
The Sanyo Main Line at Shin-Nagata features five tracks, three of which bypasses the station just to its north and the other two which serves the station. East of the station, the track alignment on the line changes. The two local tracks become the innermost tracks, while the three bypass tracks straddle the local tracks.
The Sanyo Main Line platforms are located on an elevated section of the line. It features two side platforms and two tracks. There are additional express tracks just north of the platforms that allow trains to bypass the station.
The Seishin-Yamate Line platform is located on the second basement ("B2F") level, and the Kaigan Line platform is located on the third basement ("B3F") level.
