History

Kojimashinden Station opened on 1 October 1944 under the Tokyu Corporation. Keihin Electric Express Railway took over the station from 1 June 1948 after it was spun off from Tokyu.

On 25 March 1964 it became the terminal of the Daishi Line when Shiohama Station was closed. At that time, the station was moved 300m west, and its platform arrangement was changed from double tracked side platforms to a single track terminus.

The station was converted into a double track island platform on 14 March 2010.[1]

Keikyū introduced station numbering to its stations on 21 October 2010; Kojimashinden Station was assigned station number KK26.[2]
