History
Ōtsuki Station opened on 1 October 1902 with the extension of the government-built Chūō Main Line from Torisawa, handling both passengers and freight. The Fuji Horse Tramway began calling at the station in January 1903; in 1928 its Ōtsuki–Fujiyoshida line passed to the Fuji Sanroku Electric Railway (later Fuji Kyuko), which opened its own line between Ōtsuki and Fujiyoshida on 19 June 1929. JNR freight ceased on 1 February 1984, and the station passed to JR East at privatisation on 1 April 1987. Suica acceptance began on 18 November 2001 (JR East) and 14 March 2015 (Fujikyuko), and a new station forecourt opened on 15 June 2012.
Notes
The wooden log-built station building, completed in November 1928 in an alpine-lodge style, was selected for the Kanto Station Best Hundred list in 1997 for the way it blends into the surrounding mountains.
