Location

History

Sagamiko Station opened on 1 August 1901 as Yose Station, handling both passengers and freight on the Japanese Government Railways Chūō Line, in present-day Midori-ku, Sagamihara, Kanagawa. The Government Railways became Japanese National Railways after World War II, and the station was renamed Sagamiko on 10 April 1956, after nearby Lake Sagami. Scheduled freight service ended in 1971. Operation passed to East Japan Railway Company (JR East) at the 1 April 1987 privatisation, and Suica automated turnstiles entered service on 18 November 2001. The staffed station has an island platform and a side platform across three tracks, with the middle track used only for through traffic.

Notes

The station kept its original name, Yose, for more than half a century, becoming Sagamiko only on 10 April 1956 — the name it shares with nearby Lake Sagami.
