Kamo (Niigata)

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Kamo Station opened on 20 November 1897 on the Hokuetsu Railway between Nuttari and Ichinokido (now Higashi-Sanjō). The line was nationalised on 1 August 1907. The privately operated Kanbara Railway (Kanbara Tetsudō) reached Kamo on 20 October 1930, when its Kamo–Higashi-Kamo section opened and completed that line, and served the station until the Kamo–Muramatsu stretch closed on 31 March 1985; the west-side station building it provided is still in service today. JR East took over on 1 April 1987. Automatic faregates and Suica acceptance arrived in early 2005–2006, the Midori-no-Madoguchi staffed ticket office closed on 31 January 2024, and a self-service ticket machine took its place the next day.

The station's west-side building was originally built by the private Kanbara Railway for its own Kamo Station in December 1978, and was retained as JR's west entrance after the line closed.
