• JR Yamatoji Line: Seki (Mie) ⇄ Tsuge

Kabuto Station opened on 21 September 1896 as a general station of the private Kansai Railway, on the section between Seki and Tsuge in present-day Kameyama, Mie. The Kansai Railway was nationalised on 1 October 1907, and the line became part of the Kansai Main Line under the 1909 line-name system. The current station building was completed in 1936. Freight handling ended on 1 October 1962, and the station was destaffed in April 1983. It passed to JR West at privatisation on 1 April 1987. In 2019 Kameyama City announced that it would acquire the station building from JR West and refurbish it as municipal property; the rebuilt building reopened on 1 April 2022 with a community salon in the former office.

The Wikipedia disambiguator "(Mie)" reflects that Japan has three other stations read "Kabuto", written 兜駅 (Abukuma Express) and the now-closed 甲駅 (Noto Railway, 2005).
