History

Hatchōnawate Station was opened by the Keihin Electric Railway (today's Keikyū) on 25 December 1915 — though contemporary accounts give competing dates as late as January 1917. The Nambu Railway connected through a freight-only stop on 25 March 1930, beginning passenger service on 10 April the same year. Nambu was nationalised on 1 April 1944, with JNR freight handling at the station ending the same day. The level crossing inside the station was replaced by a footbridge on 28 October 1974. JR East took over the Nambu Branch platforms at privatisation on 1 April 1987, and the building was rebuilt in 1989. Keikyū station numbering KK27 followed on 21 October 2010.

Notes

The station's opening date is contested — Keikyū's own centennial history lists 1915, the company magazine 'Nagisa' gives 1916, and a 1917 Yokohama newspaper article cites yet another date.
