Location

History

Uenohara Station opened on 1 August 1901 as a passenger and freight station of the Japanese Government Railways Chūō Main Line, in what is now the city of Uenohara, Yamanashi Prefecture. The JGR became the Japanese National Railways after World War II, and the 1 April 1987 dissolution and privatisation of JNR brought the station under JR East. Automated turnstiles using the Suica IC card system began operation on 18 November 2001. From March 2017, all express trains began passing through without stopping, and in January 2018 the Midori no Madoguchi ticket office was closed. The station has a single island platform serving two tracks, connected to the station building by a footbridge, and remains staffed. It lies 69.8 kilometres from the line's Tokyo terminus.

Notes

Uenohara is the third-busiest railway station in Yamanashi Prefecture, behind only Kōfu and Ōtsuki, despite having lost express service in 2017.
