History
Kasumi Station opened on 25 October 1911 as the terminus of a Bantan Line extension from Kinosaki (now Kinosaki-Onsen), with both passenger and freight services. The following March, the line was extended to Hamasaka and the section from Fukuchiyama via Wadayama was reclassified as part of the San'in Main Line, leaving Kasumi a station on the San'in Main Line alone. An underground passage linking platforms 1 and 2/3 was completed in 1955, and the present station building dates from 1959. Freight operations ended in 1974 and parcel handling in 1986. The station passed to JR West at the 1987 privatisation. The ticket office closed on 1 October 2021 and the station became unstaffed all day from the following day.
Notes
Ahead of the Twilight Express Mizukaze sleeper's stops from late October 2021, the town of Kami leased the waiting room from JR and refitted it in wood-grain finish with bookshelves stocked with local-history and tourism material.
