Koyanagi Station was opened on 1 November 1986 as a station on the Japan National Railways (JNR). With the privatization of the JNR on 1 April 1987, it came under the operational control of East Japan Railway Company (JR East). On 4 December 2010, the Tōhoku Shinkansen was successfully extended north to Shin-Aomori Station from Hachinohe.[1] As a result of the opening of the bullet train between the two stations, that section of the Tōhoku Main Line including this station was transferred to the Aoimori Railway Company from JR East on the same day.[2]
Koyanagi Station is primarily served by trains operating on a local service on the Aoimori Railway Line between Aomori and Hachinohe. It is served by one rapid express train, the 560M train operated jointly by the Aoimori Railway and the Iwate Galaxy Railway between Aomori and Morioka. Passenger trains serve Koyanagi Station just over 17 hours a day from 5:51 am to 11:42 pm. At peak hours between the first train and 9:37 am, trains depart from the station roughly every 30 minutes; otherwise trains depart at an approximate hourly basis.[3] In 2018, a daily average of 1,085 passengers boarded trains at Koyanagi Station,[4] an increase from the daily average of 559 passengers the station served in 2011, the first year of its operation on the Aoimori Railway Line. In 2018, the station was the seventh busiest on the Aoimori Railway Line, excluding Aomori and Hachinohe stations. It is the fourth busiest along the rail line in the city of Aomori.[4]
