[edit] Surrounding area

The surrounding area is all farmland with the exception of Makabe hospital which was the original reason the station was opened. At one point the area was supposed to be up for new development; however, as the local populace managed to cling to life longer than expected, the area has remained farmland to this day. Consequently, the majority of traffic for this station is mainly destined for the local Makabe hospital, still in operation to this day.

[edit] History

• June 1, 1929: Station begins operation.
