No publicly available departure data for this station.

Godai Station opened on 1 September 1935 as a passenger-only station on the government-run Suigun Line in what is now Naka, Ibaraki Prefecture - originally written with the older form of the kanji. Operations were suspended on 10 August 1941, and the station reopened on 1 February 1953 as an unstaffed stop handling only railcar passenger traffic. The station passed to JR East upon the 1 April 1987 privatisation of the Japanese National Railways. A simplified ticket vending machine was added on 8 May 2001. The station closed temporarily after the 11 March 2011 Tohoku earthquake and resumed service a month later on 11 April 2011.

The surrounding area mixes two written forms of "Godai" - the station and place name use the kanji for "rear platform" while the older village name used a different writing meaning "five platforms" - both pronounced identically.
