History

Idamichi Station opened on 18 July 1922 with the original Iga Railway's extension from Uenomachi (now Uenoshi) to Nabari, in what is now Iga, Mie Prefecture. The line passed through a chain of operators - Iga Electric Railway (1926), Osaka Electric Tramway Iga Line (1929), Sangū Express Electric Railway (1931), and Kansai Express Railway (1941) - before becoming part of Kintetsu via the wartime 1944 merger. The internal level crossing was removed and the station became unstaffed on 6 and 15 March 2000 respectively. On 1 October 2007 the line was spun off as the present Iga Railway, taking the station with it. Two opposed side platforms accept up to two-car trains.

Notes

After the 2000 closure of the internal level crossing, passengers wanting to reach the opposite platform must leave the station and use the public level crossing on its north side.
