Shimbamba Station is an elevated station with two side platforms serving two tracks. Although the station is long enough to handle 12-car trains, only 4 and 6-car local trains stop at this station.
1 | ■ Keikyū Main Line | for Yokohama, Shinzushi, Uraga, Misakiguchi, Miurakaigan[1] |
2 | ■ Keikyū Main Line | for Shinagawa, Sengakuji,[2] Shimbashi, Asakusa, Narita Airport |
The station opened as an elevated station on October 15, 1976, and replaced the earlier Kitabamba Station and Minamibamba Station. Since the work to elevate and integrate the stations progressed track by track, the two stations had shared one elevated platform for Uraga-bound trains from August 27, 1975 with the transitional station name "Kitabamba·Minamibamba."[3]
