• Tsurumi Line: Showa

Ōgimachi Station opened on 18 August 1928 as the eastern terminus of the Tsurumi Rinkō Railway (a private operator serving the Keihin industrial belt), initially handling only freight. Passenger service began on 28 October 1930. The line was nationalised on 1 July 1943 and absorbed into the Ministry of Railways' Tsurumi Line. The station was destaffed on 1 March 1971 and freight handling was restricted to dedicated industrial sidings on 4 March 1975. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 the station passed to joint operation by JR East and JR Freight, and Suica IC service began on 22 March 2002. Ticket sales and IC card top-ups at the station's vending machine ended on 30 September 2016. The station carries number JI 10.

The station is located on a small reclaimed "island" in the Keihin industrial zone, surrounded on all four sides by canals and ringed by chemical plants. The station's name comes from the fan-shaped (扇 ōgi) crest of the Asano zaibatsu, whose patriarch financed the reclamation. Although Ōgimachi is administratively in Kawasaki, it falls within the JR "Yokohama City" fare zone. Since 2022 JR East has run trials of its FV-E991 series hydrogen-fuel-cell train from this station, with refuelling equipment installed in the yard. The station is also a popular cat-photography spot.
