Location

History

Aomori Station opened on 1 September 1891 as the northern terminus of the privately built Nippon Railway from Ueno, becoming a Government Railways stop on 1 November 1906. The first Aomori-Hakodate connecting ferry departed on 7 March 1908. The station and adjoining port facilities were destroyed in the Aomori air raid of 28 July 1945, and rebuilding finished on 15 July 1949. Its fourth-generation depot opened on 25 December 1959 and served until March 2021. With the JNR split on 1 April 1987 it came under JR East. On 4 December 2010 the Hachinohe - Aomori section transferred to Aoimori Railway, making the stop a JR/Aoimori joint station. A new fifth-generation footbridge depot opened on 27 March 2021.

Notes

The 1977 enka hit Tsugaru Kaikyō Fuyugeshiki, sung by Sayuri Ishikawa, opens with its narrator leaving a train at Aomori Station to board the Hokkaidō ferry, a journey the closure of the seikan ferry service in 1988 made impossible.
