History
Ise-Kamakura Station opened on 5 December 1935 when the Japanese Government Railways extended the Meishō Line between Ieki Station and Ise-Okitsu Station, originally as an unstaffed halt. After local petitions by the village of Yachi and the donation of a station building handed over in August 1947, two staff were posted from October 1947, but parcel service was dropped in December 1951 and the station became unstaffed again. JNR privatisation in April 1987 transferred it to JR Central. Service was suspended from 8 October 2009 after Typhoon 18 damaged the line; bus substitution covered the gap until train operation between Ieki and Ise-Okitsu was restored on 26 March 2016.
Notes
During the Second World War, travel rules capped the number of passengers boarding at each Meishō Line station at a few dozen a day, and because Ise-Kamakura was unstaffed, would-be passengers sometimes flocked to it.
