Location

History

Kazusa-Nakagawa Station opened on 1 April 1930 as a stop on the Japanese Government Railway Kihara Line, in what is now Isumi, Chiba Prefecture. Scheduled freight operations ended in September 1954, when the station was simultaneously reclassified as passenger-only and destaffed. Operations passed to JR East with the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987, and on 24 March 1988 the Kihara Line was transferred to the third-sector Isumi Railway as the Isumi Line. The station is a simple side-platform halt 11.9 kilometres from the eastern terminus at Ōhara, accessible directly from the adjacent public road without stairs.

Notes

Heavy rainfall causes the trackbed at Kazusa-Nakagawa to flood and erupt with mud, but no thoroughgoing reballasting has been carried out.
