This station was called Tango Yamada Station while the line was operated by Japan National Railways and the West Japan Railway Company (JR West), but it was renamed when the Miyazu Line was transferred to the Kitakinki Tango Railway (Nodagawa-cho was the old name of Yosano-cho). |
日本国有鉄道、西日本旅客鉄道(JR西日本)が運営していた時代は丹後山田駅(たんごやまだえき)と名乗っていたが、北近畿タンゴ鉄道への宮津線移管の際に現在の駅名に改称されている(野田川町は与謝野町成立までの旧町名だった)。 |
