Ueda Station, Railway interchange station in Ueda, Japan
Ueda Station is a railway hub with four side platforms and one island platform, positioned at 446 meters elevation in Nagano Prefecture. The facility sits elevated above the tracks and brings together multiple railway lines at this central location.
The station was founded in 1888 and grew into a transportation hub when the Ueda Electric Railway added its platforms in 1924. This expansion made it a key junction for regional connections.

Three railway companies operate the station: East Japan Railway Company, Shinano Railway, and Ueda Electric Railway. Visitors will find a Remote & AI Concierge system with touch screens and voice commands for transportation and local information.
