But, the bus terminal has called Hokota Station since Kashima Railway was open to traffic.
There were a stand-up soba noodle shop and a sold fish-shaped pancake filled with sweet bean paste shop that were operated by Kashima Railway.
But, they expired with Kanto Railway, so they moved the vehicles from this station to Hotpark Hokota(a facility for bathing) in 2009.
A shop for sold fish-shaped pancale filled with sweet bean paste had been moved to the bus terminal.
But, in 2011, the platform has been damaged due to Great East Japan Earthquake and the platform wasn't repaired, and the shop was closed and removed on August in the year.
