[1] Services have now been replaced by a provisional bus rapid transit line.

The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of the Japan National Railways (JNR) on April 1, 1987.

Operations were discontinued after the station was completely destroyed by the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami and an iconic video on the internet recorded from the Shizugawa High School shows the station being flattened as well as the tracks and other nearby buildings before being pouring down to a flat area towards a neighborhood.

Today rail services have now been replaced by a bus rapid transit line.
