History
Shiodome Station serves as an interchange between the Toei Oedo Line (E-19) and the Yurikamome automated guideway (U-02) in Minato, Tokyo. The structures were completed years before opening: the Yurikamome shell was finished on 1 November 1995 and the Oedo shell on 12 December 2000, but both were withheld while the surrounding Shiodome district remained under redevelopment. The two stations finally opened together on 2 November 2002. The transfer is not direct, requiring passengers to exit to ground level to switch services. PASMO acceptance began on 18 March 2007. The two halves were among the newest stations on each network at opening.

Notes
Because both lines' structures were complete by 2000 but held back pending redevelopment, Shiodome was simultaneously the newest Oedo Line station and the newest Yurikamome station on the day it opened.
