Location

History

Gamō Station opened on 20 December 1899 in Koshigaya, Saitama, on the Tōbu Isesaki Line. It was relocated 1.2 km south to its present site on 25 December 1908. The northbound track was elevated on 8 October 1993, the southbound following on 12 November 1994, and a new station building was completed in 1998. Departure melodies were introduced on 15 March 2012, and two days later the station was assigned the designation TS-19 when station numbering was rolled out across the Tōbu network; the section through Gamō carries the "Tōbu Skytree Line" nickname. Platform-edge doors entered service on 8 October 2024, more than a century after the line first reached the site.

Notes

Gamō was not built on its present site: the station that opened in 1899 was moved 1.2 km south to its current location on 25 December 1908, less than a decade after it first opened.
