Sambommatsu Station (三本松駅, Sambommatsu-eki) is a passenger railway station located in the city of Higashikagawa, Kagawa Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by JR Shikoku and has the station number "T12".[1][2]

Lines

Sambommatsu Station is served by the JR Shikoku Kōtoku Line and is located 37.6 km from the beginning of the line at Takamatsu.[3] Besides local services, the Uzushio limited express between Okayama, Takamatsu and Tokushima also stops at the station.[4]

Layout

The station consists of a side platform and an island platform serving three tracks. A station building houses a waiting room and a JR ticket window (with a Midori no Madoguchi facility). Access to the island platform is by means of a footbridge. A siding runs on the far side of the island platform beyond track 3. Parking is available on the station forecourt and a large bike shed is provided.[2][3][5]


History

Sambommatsu Station was opened on 15 April 1928 as an intermediate stop when the track of the Kōtoku Line was extended eastwards to Hiketa from Sanuki-Tsuda. At that time the station was operated by Japanese Government Railways, later becoming Japanese National Railways (JNR). With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku.[6][7]
