History
Kamojima Station opened on 16 February 1899 as a terminus of the privately run Tokushima Railway, with its name originally read "Kamoshima". The reading was officially changed to "Kamojima" on 1 December 1937. It became a through-station on 19 August 1899 when the line was extended west to Awa-Kawashima. The Tokushima Railway was nationalised on 1 September 1907, and Japanese Government Railways and then Japanese National Railways operated it as part of the Tokushima Line. JR Shikoku took over at the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987, and the line was redesignated the Tokushima Line on 1 June 1988. The Midori-no-Madoguchi opened in September 2019 but was withdrawn in October 2021 in favour of a Midori-no-Kenbaiki-Plus machine.
Notes
In 2025 Kamojima became the only staffed station on the Tokushima Line; one of the line's historical curiosities is that its station name flipped reading from "Kamoshima" to "Kamojima" by official notice in December 1937.
