History
Arayamae Station opened on 16 December 1924 as a station on the Iwate Light Railway, a 762 mm narrow-gauge line that ran 65.4 km between Hanamaki and the now-defunct Sennintōge Station. The Iwate Light Railway was nationalised in 1936, becoming the Kamaishi Line, and the station was absorbed into the JR East network at the privatisation of the Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. The single side platform is built on a curve and serves a bi-directional track. The station is unattended.
Notes
The platform is built on a curve, and the station's Esperanto nickname "Akvorado" means "waterwheel."
