In the past, a freight yard, despite being small in scale, existed on the west side of this station and a special railway from there to the Japan Food Warehouse and an oil-storage site was provided in the south direction, over Sanjo-dori Street.
かつて駅西側には小規模ながら貨物ヤードが存在し、ここから南方へ三条通を越えて日本食糧倉庫や油槽所へ専用鉄道が続いていた。
