History

Nogisawa Station opened on 4 December 1934 on the Suigun Line, 110.1 km along the line from its southern terminus at Mito. Freight and parcel handling were withdrawn on 1 October 1970, the station was unstaffed, and a private shop took on simplified ticket sales. The station building was reduced in size in March 1977. With the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR East. Simplified entrustment ended in 1995, and in September 1996 the building was rebuilt sharing a structure with the local JA Abukuma (now JA Yumeminami) Ishikawa-Nogisawa branch. The station today has a single side platform; the disused second platform from its passing-loop era still remains.

Notes

A chunk of pegmatite is displayed in front of the station building.
