Shizu (Ibaraki)

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Shizu Station first appeared as a temporary stop on 20–21 November 1918, set up to handle pilgrims to the nearby Shizu Jinja shrine. It opened permanently on 1 February 1919 as a passenger halt of the second Mito Railway, with freight handling added when the Mito Railway was nationalised on 1 December 1927. Freight ended in November 1962 and parcels in October 1970, at which point staffing was withdrawn; ticket sales were commissioned to a local shop later the same month. The station joined the JR East network on 1 April 1987 with the privatisation of Japanese National Railways and now consists of a single side platform on the Suigun Line, with the ruins of the original second platform still visible.
