Tanigami Station, Railway station in northern Kobe, Japan
Tanigami Station is a railway station in northern Kobe featuring five tracks and three island platforms that serve two different rail lines. The facility connects the Shintetsu Arima Line with the Kobe Municipal Subway Hokushin Line, allowing passengers access to various parts of the city.
The station began operations on 28 November 1928 and underwent major reconstruction in 1988 to expand its capacity. This renovation modernized the facilities and enabled the integration of two separate rail networks at the same location.
The station serves as a daily meeting point connecting residential neighborhoods of northern Kobe, where commuters and visitors pass through to reach different parts of the city. The mix of local passengers and travelers creates a steady flow of activity throughout the day.
Platforms 1 and 2 serve the Arima-Onsen line, while platforms 4 and 5 handle subway connections to Shin-Kobe and Sannomiya stations. Visitors should pay attention to signage to find the correct platform and line for their destination.
The station operates with two separate identification codes: KB10 for the Kobe Electric Railway and S01 for the Kobe Municipal Subway. This dual coding system reflects how two independent rail networks converge at this location.
