History
Uenoshi Station opened on 8 August 1916 as Uenomachi (上野町) on what is now the Iga Line, in present-day Iga, Mie Prefecture. The line passed through Iga Tetsudō, Iga Denki Tetsudō, Daiki, Sangū Kyūkō and Kansai Kyūkō ownership before consolidation into Kintetsu on 1 June 1944. The station was renamed Uenoshi on 10 September 1941. Freight operations ended in October 1973. The Iga Line was spun off as the present Iga Railway on 1 October 2007. The three-storey wooden station building, completed in September 1917, was added to the national Registered Tangible Cultural Property list on 4 February 2021. The Iga Railway has its headquarters and depot on the site.
Notes
Ninja figurines cling to the canopy eaves over the platform, and a shuriken-shaped sign on the platform itself shows the station's "Ninja City" nickname.
