History
Tagokura Station opened on 29 August 1971,[1] and was unstaffed from the start.[2]
From December 2001, the station was closed during the winter season between December and March.[2]
Heavy rain storms in July 2011 forced services on the section of the Tadami Line between Aizu-Kawaguchi and Ōshirakawa to be suspended, but the section between Tadami and Ōshirakawa, including Tagokura was reopened from 1 October 2012.[3]
From the start of the revised timetable on 16 March 2013, the station closed permanently, due to low passenger usage—being used on average by roughly one person per day.[4]
Surrounding area
The station is located on National Route 252, beside Lake Tagokura. There are no shops or residences for miles beneath the station. The main users of the station were mountain climbers.
