History
Kamo Station opened on 20 November 1897 on the Hokuetsu Railway between Numadari and Ichinokido (now Higashi-Sanjō). The line was nationalised on 1 August 1907. Between 20 October 1930 and 31 March 1985 the privately operated Kanbara Railway (Kanbara Tetsudō) ran from Kamo to Higashi-Kamo (later to Muramatsu), using a west-side station building still in service today. JR East took over on 1 April 1987, and a new east-side building opened on 14 March 1992. Automatic faregates and Suica acceptance arrived in early 2005–2006, the Midori-no-Madoguchi staffed ticket office closed on 31 January 2024, and a self-service ticket machine took its place the next day.
Notes
The station's west-side building was originally built by the private Kanbara Railway for its own Kamo Station in December 1978, and was retained as JR's west entrance after the line closed.
