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

Tama Station, on Seibu Railway's Tamagawa Line in the city of Fuchū, Tokyo, opened on 5 January 1929 under the name Tama-Bochi-mae Station, a reference to the adjacent Tama Cemetery. It was renamed Tama Station in 2001 and carries the secondary name Tōkyō Gaidai-mae, after the nearby Tokyo University of Foreign Studies. Station numbering on Seibu lines was introduced in fiscal 2012, assigning Tama the code SW03. The station underwent substantial rebuilding in 2019 and 2020, during which the inter-platform underpass was replaced by a modern overpass linking the two side platforms.

When the station opened in 1929 its name pointed to the adjoining Tama Cemetery; the 2001 rename to plain Tama Station dropped the cemetery reference more than seventy years later.
