History

Kamimachi-gochōme Station opened on 9 October 1906 as Honchō-suji-gochōme alongside its neighbours; the Honchō-suji-gochōme car works followed a week later on 16 October, just to the north of the stop, to handle the new rolling stock arriving with the line extension. A fire there on 25 February 1909 was a memorable early-history setback. The kanji was changed to 本丁筋五丁目 on 1 August 1936, and the present name Kamimachi-gochōme arrived on 10 August 1966 with the wider address reform. In May 1975 the turnout that had been at Asahimachi-itchōme was moved here, allowing Harimaya-bashi/Kōchi-eki-bound short workings to terminate at this stop. The stop passed to Tosaden Kōtsū on 1 October 2014 with the operator merger. The Honchō-suji-gochōme car works stood here until the Hotarubashi car works opened to the west after WWII.

Notes

Because the turnout sits on the Harimaya-bashi side of the stop, short-workings that terminate here cannot loop back to the inbound platform — they discharge passengers on the outbound side, open the doors on the opposite side, and let new passengers walk across the tracks from the inbound platform to board.
