History
Onogami Station opened on 20 November 1945 on the Agatsuma Line, in what is now Murakami, Shibukawa, Gunma Prefecture, 11.9 km from the line terminus at Shibukawa. Originally a full freight-and-passenger stop under Japanese National Railways, the station ended freight handling on 1 April 1982 and parcel service on 1 February 1984 before passing to JR East at the 1987 privatisation. It became unstaffed on 1 February 2003, was rebuilt with a compact new station building in 2007, and was absorbed into JR East's Tokyo near-suburban zone on 1 October 2014.
Notes
Although the Agatsuma Line has no scheduled freight service, the station retains a single-platform aggregate-loading track for andesite quarried at the adjacent hillside, and Hoki 800-series ballast wagons belonging to JR East's Takasaki Vehicle Center are officially stationed here for the irregular works trains that carry the crushed stone.
