History
Ōtagō Station opened on 11 January 1913 in what is now Chikusei, Ibaraki Prefecture, as a stop on the privately built Jōsō Railroad, which later became the Kantō Railway in 1965. The defunct Jōsō Railroad Kinugawa Line branched from this station between 1926 and 1964, giving Ōtagō a role as a junction over those years. The station today consists of two opposed side platforms linked to its building by a level crossing on the Jōsō Line, 47.3 km from the line's start at Toride. In fiscal 2018 it averaged 149 boarding passengers per day.
Notes
Between 1926 and 1964 Ōtagō was the junction for the now-vanished Jōsō Railroad Kinugawa Line, which branched off here before closing six decades ago.
