Ōmika Station - Hitachi

There is only one coffee shop around the station (combined with a pastry shop), so when adjusting the time, consider using the meeting corner on the first floor (because it is a new building, it is beautiful, and there are tables and outlets).

Currently under construction in front of the station. It is good that the concourse is under the track and the rain and wind can keep up. There are few ticket vending machines and reserved seat vending machines, so it might be better to buy an express ticket with a ticketless service. Is it a little hard for people to pick up and drop off?

Why didn't you install an escalator at the time of renovation? Although it is a local station, the congestion in the morning and evening will be considerable at nearby companies and schools. In addition, the width of the platform and stairs is narrow, and there is no platform fence, so it feels quite dangerous when it is crowded. It is not possible to run a 5-car train in the morning and evening when it is crowded, and a 10-car train in a quiet daytime. A waiting area was created in a prime location at the east exit of the station. A waiting area with nothing. I can't get this. The stores surrounding the rotary in front of the station continue to close, and the number of people continues to decrease. I can't see the feelings and vision of developing what I want to do in the land of Omika. There is no choice but to rate it as the lowest station overall.

The station building is currently being updated. There are many excellent taxi stands, cafeterias, piers, and so on. The troublesome thing has to go all the way to the other side. That seems to be improved in the new station building.

Oyodo Station, station building, home and ticket gate changed greatly, but only home only drifts the old memories The feeling and atmosphere have also been lost? maybe

Omika station. Very obfuscated station name. The word jar means a vessel (especially a large turtle used for brewing sake), and the name of the town is taken from it. The name of the town is now Omika-cho because it is difficult to write. The chances of seeing the word "jar" have decreased. .. .. It's a fairly large station on the Joban Line, and the limited express also stops. It's a historic station, but it has recently been refurbished and is very clean. It used to be difficult to move from east to west, but it became very convenient because there was a free passage under the railroad tracks. The east exit roundabout is usually full of taxis waiting for passengers. There is also a police box so you can rest assured. There are a few shops lined up. On the other hand, there are not many shops at the west exit, and it is still under development. Ibaraki Christian Academy can only be seen in the immediate vicinity, and there is not much else that stands out. However, the point is that there is a large rotary like the east exit and there is also a fine bus stop. The station has been cleaned up, the surrounding towns have been developed, and I'm looking forward to the future! Omika station departure melody Line 1: Always dream Line 2: Mexican Rock in Love Since the birthplace of the composer Tadashi Yoshida is now Hitachi City, the songs he composed from the station in Hitachi City, Omika to Juou, are used as the local departure melody.

Unusable station There is only one staircase, and because it is sideways, people are clogged when it is crowded in the morning, so you can not proceed in the middle. (People who got off the train from the north side are hopeless) Moreover, the stairs are narrow, and there are pillars near the entrance from the platform, so it's narrow. I wish I had divided the ticket gates into the north side and the south side and attached stairs and escalators respectively. Besides, since there are only two platforms, we can't meet for limited express trains, so it's a station that can't be used at all.
