Eiheijiguchi Station

Eiheijiguchi Station (永平寺口駅, Eiheijiguchi-eki) is a railway station on the Katsuyama Eiheiji Line in the town of Eiheiji, Fukui, Japan, operated by the private railway operator Echizen Railway.

The original station building from 1914 has been preserved as a community centre.

On December 10, 1929 the Eiheiji Railway Kanazu (now Awaraonsen) — Eiheijiguchi section opened.

On December 1, 1944 the line was transferred to the Keifuku Electric Railway and the station was renamed Higashi-Furuichi (東古市駅, Higashi-Furuichi-eki).

On December 17, 2000, two trains collided just east of the station due to a brake malfunction.
