History

Ishinomaki Station opened on 28 October 1912 as part of the Sembei Light Railway, the predecessor of the Ishinomaki Line. On 22 November 1928 the separate Miyaden-Ishinomaki Station opened nearby on the Miyagi Electric Railway, today's Senseki Line. After the Miyagi Electric Railway was nationalised on 1 May 1944, both stations carried the name Ishinomaki Station but remained in separate buildings, forcing transferring passengers to leave one gate-line and enter the other. The two were finally consolidated into a single combined station on 21 July 1990. On 11 March 2011 the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami inundated the station and surrounding area; full service on the Senseki Line and the new Senseki-Tōhoku Line resumed on 30 May 2015.
