History

Uge Station opened on 25 December 1961 as a station of the Hachinohe Line under Japan National Railways (JNR), in what is now the town of Hirono in Iwate Prefecture. From the start it was a railcar-only stop without staff. With the 1 April 1987 privatisation of JNR, the station came under the control of East Japan Railway Company (JR East). On 11 March 2011 the Great East Japan Earthquake severed the line south of the station, washing out the track toward Rikuchū-Nakano; service resumed on 17 March 2012 after disaster restoration, with a renewed waiting room. On 1 April 2022 the position of Kuji stationmaster was abolished and the station was placed under Hachinohe's jurisdiction.
