On March 20, 1930, the Keio Electric Tramway opened the Goryà  Line, a 6.3 km branch of the Keio Line, electrified at 600 V DC, between Kitano Station and Goryà Âmae Station. The terminus, Goryà Âmae, was a gateway for the tomb of Emperor Taishà Â.
The line had three intermediate stations: Katakura, Yamada, and Yokoyama. Yokoyama Station and Goryà Âmae Station were renamed Musashi-Yokoyama Station and Tamagoryà Âmae Station respectively in 1937. The line was single track and had a passing loop at Yokoyama Station. On weekdays, the line operated at 30 or 40 minute intervals, while at weekends it operated through trains to Yotsuya-Shinjuku Station, the Tokyo terminal of Keio at that time, at 20-minute intervals.
The Keio Electric Tramway was merged into Tokyà  Kyà «ko Dentetsu (present-day Tokyu Corporation) in 1944. The new operator suspended operation of the Goryà  Line on January 21, 1945, as a "not needed or not pressing" line, which was subject of the collection of metal for the war effort.
In 1948, Keio Teito Electric Railway (present-day Keio Corporation) was established and succeeded the former operation of Keià  Electric Tramway including the suspended Goryà  Line.
During the economic boom in the 1960s, Keio decided to build a new line to Mount Takao, utilizing a part of the (effectively closed) Goryà  Line. Keio opened the Takao Line on October 1, 1967, electrified at 1,500 V DC and dual track to Takao station. Of the former Goryà  Line stations, Katakura Station (newly named Keià Â-Katakura Station) and Yamada Station were revived.
