Location
History
Shin-Kemigawa Station opened on 15 July 1951 as a passenger-only stop on the Chūō-Sōbu Line, operated by Japanese National Railways. The present overhead station building was completed on 16 June 1978, replacing the original opposed side platforms with a single island platform connected to bridge-level gates. Operation passed to JR East at the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987. Automatic ticket gates entered service in May 1993, Suica acceptance began in November 2001, and operation was delegated to a JR East subsidiary in July 2019. Smart platform doors entered service on 20 February 2026.
Notes
Because Keisei's Kemigawa Station predated it by three decades, JNR planners added the "Shin-" (new) prefix when opening the JR stop in 1951; the private-line Kemigawa Station still lies within walking distance of its newer namesake.
