History

The station opened on the Nambu Railway on 9 March 1927, initially named Shitte Halt (尻手停留場, Shitte-Teiryūjō).[1] It officially became a full station in 1929.[1] The Nambu Branch Line opened on 25 March 1930, initially as a freight-only line.[1] The Nambu Railway was nationalized on 1 April 1944, becoming part of the Japanese Government Railway (JGR) system, which became the Japanese National Railways (JNR) from 1949. A freight-only spur line to the Shin-Tsurumi Freight Terminal was opened on 1 October 1973 from the line just north of the station.[1] With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR East.[1]
