History
Keikyū Shinkoyasu Station opened on March 27, 1910 as Shin-Koyasu Station (新子安駅, Shin-Koyasu-eki). It was renamed Keihin Shin-Koyasu Station (京浜新子安駅, Keihin Shin-Koyasu-eki) on November 1, 1943 to distinguish it from the nearby Shin-Koyasu Station on the Japanese Government Railway (JGR) system. The station was rebuilt as an elevated station in February 1979. The station assumed its present name from June 1, 1987.
Keikyū introduced station numbering to its stations on 21 October 2010; Keikyū Shinkoyasu Station was assigned station number KK32.[1]
