History
Horikiri-Shōbuen Station opened on 19 December 1931 on the Keisei Main Line in Horikiri, Katsushika, Tokyo, and is the western-most railway station in the ward. It is an elevated structure with two side platforms serving two tracks, each equipped with a lift at the Ueno end but without escalators. Express services called here until the 12 October 2002 timetable revision, which abolished the express category; only local trains stop now. The similarly named Horikiri Station on the Tōbu Sky Tree Line lies on the far side of the Ayase and Arakawa rivers — about a 20-minute walk away in Adachi — so the two are not treated as connecting points; inter-operator interchange with Tōbu is handled instead between the adjacent Keisei-Sekiya and Ushida stations.

Notes
The likewise-named Horikiri Station on the Tobu Sky Tree Line sits across the Ayase and Arakawa rivers in Adachi Ward and is about a 20-minute walk away, so the two are not treated as a single interchange.
