History
Kami-Kuwanagawa Station opened on 16 September 1931 as a stop on the privately built Iiyama Railway, serving the upper Chikuma River valley in what is now Iiyama, Nagano Prefecture. It was closed when the Iiyama Railway was nationalised on 1 June 1944, and was reopened by Japanese National Railways on 10 October 1951 as a station on the Iiyama Line. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 it came under East Japan Railway Company (JR East). The unstaffed station has only a small shelter on its single embankment platform, which was refurbished between August and December 2014.
Notes
The single platform is built on an embankment with no station building, only a shelter that was redesigned around the theme "scenery of one's hometown" using the children's song "Furusato".
