History

Kasugaichō Station, on the JR East Chūō Main Line in the city of Fuefuki in Yamanashi Prefecture, opened on 1 December 1954 as Betsuden Station under Japanese National Railways, serving passengers only. It has been unstaffed since 1 October 1970, and on the 1987 dissolution of JNR it passed to the East Japan Railway Company. The station took its present name on 1 April 1993, distinguishing it from Kasugai Station in Aichi by appending the suffix '-chō'. Suica IC card turnstiles entered service on 16 October 2004, and ticket-machine sales ended on 29 March 2021.

Notes

The added '-chō' suffix in the 1993 rename was chosen specifically to keep this station auditorily distinct from Kasugai Station in Aichi Prefecture.
