History
Same Station opened on 10 November 1924 as a station of the Ministry of Railways, and became a JR East station on 1 April 1987 with the privatisation of the JNR. It is the nearest station to Kabushima, which is designated a national natural monument, and it is the easternmost staffed station in Aomori Prefecture. Hachinohe City was itself incorporated on 1 May 1929 by the merger of Hachinohe Town with the towns of Konakano and Minato and the village of Same — the same Same that gives this station its name — with a starting population of 51,529. Nearby Sameura Port was designated a commercial port in 1929.
Notes
Same Station's opening in 1924 predates Hachinohe City's very existence: the station served Same Village on the Hachinohe Line for almost five years before Same Village merged with Hachinohe Town, Konakano Town and Minato Town on 1 May 1929 to incorporate the city of Hachinohe.
