History
The forerunner of the company, Script error: No such module "Nihongo"., was established in on 15 August 1909, and opened the Template:RailGauge gauge steam-hauled line from Script error: No such module "Nihongo". (close to the present-day Kami-Kumamoto Station) to Script error: No such module "Nihongo". (present-day Fujisakigū-mae Station) on 1 October 1911.[4] On 27 August 1913, the line between Ikeda and Script error: No such module "Nihongo". (later named Kikuchi) was opened.[4]
From 31 August 1923, the line was converted to Template:RailGauge gauge and electrified at 600 V DC.[4]
The current section of the Kikuchi Line between Kita-Kumamoto and Kami-Kumamoto opened on 1 October 1950, resulting in two lines between those stations, the original via Fujisakigū-mae and the new line.[4] In June 1953 the original line from Kami-Kumamoto to Fujisakigū-mae closed.[4] The 13.5 km Miyoshi to Kikuchi section closed on 16 February 1986 due to falling patronage.[4]
