History

Kamioka opened on 20 November 1920 as an intermediate stop on a southward extension of what was then the Hōshū Main Line, operated by Japanese Government Railways after the 1907 nationalisation of the privately built Kyushu Railway. The line was renamed the Nippō Main Line on 15 December 1923. Freight handling ended on 25 February 1972, and the station became unstaffed on 30 March 1972 when parcel handling ceased. Control passed to JR Kyushu with the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. The original wooden station building survives and is reused as a local community hall.

Notes

Although the station has been unstaffed since 1972, the wooden building that opened with the station in 1920 still stands, and the neighbourhood uses it as a community hall.
