Uguisudani Station, Railway station in Negishi, Tokyo, Japan
Uguisudani Station is a railway station in Negishi with two island platforms serving four tracks for the Yamanote and Keihin-Tohoku lines. The station sits above ground and functions as a connection point between these two routes.
The Ministry of Railways opened this transportation hub on July 11, 1912, marking the start of regular train service in the area. The station was established as a key point for Tokyo's growing urban expansion.
The station name comes from Japanese bush warblers that once lived in the valley, and recordings of their calls play through the speakers each morning. This practice links visitors to the area's natural past.
The southern exit leads directly to Ueno Park and the Tokyo National Museum, providing easy access to these destinations. The station is busy during rush hours and peak travel times, so arriving off-peak is often more comfortable.
Railway photographers gather here to capture images of regional trains and luxury trains like the TRAIN SUITE Shikishima passing through regularly. The location offers special angles for train photography.
