Lines
Komada Station is served by the Kyoto Line, and is located 24.4 rail kilometers from the terminus of the line at Kyoto Station.[2]
Station layout
The station consists of two opposed side platforms, connected by an underground passage. The effective platform length is up to four-car trains, and the six-car Karasuma Line train bound for Takanohara from Kokusai Kaikan, which was operated as a special train in 1997, passed through this station because it did not meet the platform effective length. The ticket gates are located on both the north and south sides of Platform 2. Station staff are stationed at the north side only. On the south side, only automatic ticket gates are installed. An additional exit is provided on weekday mornings for Kyoto Kogakkan High School students on the south side of the southbound platform, and is also opened at other times for wheelchair users.[3]
