History

Kamimita Station opened on 1 January 1930 as Mita-Yoshinaga Station on the Geibi Railway, and was renamed Kamimita on 1 July 1937 when the line was nationalised. Petrol rationing during the Pacific War caused the gasoline-railcar service to cease, and the station was closed on 10 August 1941. Local residents campaigned and raised private funds for its reconstruction, and the station reopened on a new site on 10 August 1948. It became unattended on 20 December 1971 and passed to JR West with privatisation on 1 April 1987. Service was suspended after the July 2018 floods and partially resumed in April 2019.

Notes

The station was rebuilt after the war using funds raised by local residents themselves, who continue to celebrate it as a community-revived stop on the Geibi Line.
