Nishi-Tachiarai Station (西太刀洗駅, Nishi-Tachiarai-eki) is a passenger railway station located in the town of Tachiarai, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by the Amagi Railway, a third sector public-private partnership corporation.[1] Although the station's address is in Tachiarai, most of the platform extends across the border into the neighboring city of Ogōri, Fukuoka.
The station is served by the Amagi Railway Amagi Line and is located 8.4 km from the start of the line at Kiyama.[1] All Amagi Line trains stop at the station.[2]
Layout
The station consists of a side platform serving a single bi-directional track. There is no station building but an enclosed shelter is provided on the platform for waiting passengers. Access to the platform is by a flight of steps or a ramp. A bike shed is provided by the station entrance and parking for cars is available.[3][4][5]
