Tamagawa-Jōsui Station

Tamagawa-Jōsui Station (玉川上水駅) is a passenger railway station located in the city of Tachikawa, Tokyo, Japan, operated by the private railway operator Seibu Railway, and a monorail station operated by the Tokyo Tama Intercity Monorail in Higashiyamato, Tokyo, Japan. The two stations are adjacent to, and at right angles to one another, with the border between the two cities passing in between the stations. The names of the stations are identical in Japanese, but are transliterated slightly different in romaji such that the Seibu Station is Tamagawa-Jōsui Station, whereas the Tokyo Tama Intercity Monorail is Tamagawajosui Station (i.e. without the hypen or diacritic mark).

Surrounding area

The former Yamato Air Station (大和基地), used by the U.S forces after the end of the second world war, was on the land adjacent (northeast) of the station. A commemorative monument for the base is located a short distance from the (monorail) station's east exits.
