Location
History
Kinomiya Station opened on 30 March 1935 when the Itō Line's Atami-Ajiro section was completed, built on land reclaimed from spoil hauled out during the digging of the Tanna Tunnel. Although the Itō Line's official 0-kilometre marker stands at Kinomiya, the line is timetabled as starting at Atami. The station passed to JR East at the JNR breakup on 1 April 1987. The Itō Line's CTC control centre was located here for decades but was relocated to Atami in autumn 2006 once a new system covering both stations entered service. Suica gates were fitted in October 2004, and the station was de-staffed on 8 March 2015.
Notes
Although the Itō Line is timetabled as starting at Atami, its 0-kilometre marker is actually here at Kinomiya — a vestige of the Kinomiya signal station that stood on the Tōkaidō Main Line before 1935 and from which the line was originally built.
