Location
History
Tomidahama Station opened on 1 July 1907 as the Tomidahama Provisional Signal Stop on the Kansai Railway, serving bathers at the nearby beach during the summer swimming season. The line was nationalised on 1 October 1907 and the "provisional" qualifier was dropped on 1 July 1908. The stop was upgraded to a full station on 1 March 1928 and ran year-round thereafter. Parcel handling ended on 1 October 1970 and the station has been unstaffed since. It passed to JR Central at the April 1987 privatisation of the JNR; TOICA acceptance began on 25 November 2006, and station number CJ10 was assigned in March 2018 when JR Central rolled out numbering on its section of the Kansai Main Line.
Notes
The station began life specifically as a summer-season stop for bathers at Tomidahama beach, opening only during the swimming season for its first two decades before earning year-round operation in 1928.
