History

Yotsukaidō Station was opened on December 9, 1894 as a station on the Sōbu Railway for both passenger and freight operations. On September 1, 1907, the Sōbu Railway was nationalised, becoming part of the Japanese Government Railway (JGR). After World War II, the JGR became the Japan National Railways (JNR). Scheduled freight operations were suspended from February 1, 1974. A new elevated station building was completed in December 1981. The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of the Japan National Railways (JNR) on April 1, 1987. A new station building was completed in 2002.

gollark: I am not, however, forced to work all the time, and if I work I get a significant cut of the reward for this, unlike a slave.
gollark: I mean, broadly speaking, I'm at least... strongly incentivized... to do work (when I'm at the societally approved™ age for this).
gollark: This is not how slavery works.
gollark: I don't really have very strong emotional response to statues like that, but this is perhaps because nothing very bad like that has never actually happened to me. Although some things did happen to my ancestors.
