Nippori Station (日暮里駅, Nippori-eki) is a major railway interchange station in Arakawa, Tokyo, Japan.
A new elevated platform for Keisei services opened on October 3, 2009.
The station is an intersection of JR and Keisei systems. Although Keisei Ueno Station, the terminal of Keisei, is also located adjacent to JR's Ueno Station, Nippori Station provides easier transfer.
A new elevated platform serving outbound Keisei trains opened to traffic on October 3, 2009. The new elevated line has two side platforms serving a single track. One platform is for Skyliner, City Liner, and Evening Liner boarding, while the other platform is for regular commuter trains. Ueno-bound trains continue to discharge on the original platform on the lower level.
There are no platforms for tracks 5 to 8, which are for non-stop Takasaki Line and Utsunomiya Line trains.
The Nippori-Toneri Line station is elevated and consists of a single island platform serving two tracks.
The JR station first opened on April 1, 1905.[2] The Keisei station opened on December 19, 1931.[3]
