History
Azuchi Station opened on 25 April 1914 as a station for both passenger and freight operations on the Japanese Government Railway (JGR), which became the Japan National Railway (JNR) after World War II.[1] Freight operations ceased on 15 March 1972. The station became part of the West Japan Railway Company on 1 April 1987 due to the privatization and dissolution of the JNR.
Station numbering was introduced in March 2018 with Azuchi being assigned station number JR-A18.[2][3]
The station was remodeled to resemble a Japanese castle in 2019.
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 2,586 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).[4]
