Nerima Station (練馬駅 Nerima-eki?) is a railway station in Nerima, Tokyo, Japan, operated by the private railway operator Seibu Railway and the Tokyo subway operator Toei Subway.
Nerima Station is served by the Seibu Ikebukuro Line, Seibu Yurakucho Line, and Seibu Toshima Line, and also by the Toei Oedo Line subway. It is located 6.0 km from the terminus of the Ikebukuro Line at Ikebukuro.
Nerima is an elevated station with two island platforms serving four tracks, with an additional outer track on either side used by passing trains. Elevators and escalators connect the platforms to the ticket entrances, and the station contains a waiting room as well.
The Toei station consists of an underground island platform serving two tracks.
The Seibu station opened on 15 April 1915. The Toei station opened on 10 December 1991.
The original ground-level station was rebuilt as an elevated station in 1997, and at the same time, the number of tracks was increased to six to allow non-stop trains to pass.
From 1998, inter-running of some services commenced to and from the Seibu Yurakucho Line.
Station numbering was introduced on all Seibu Railway lines during fiscal 2012, with Nerima Station becoming "SI06".
