History
Fuchinobe Station was opened on 23 September 1908 on the Yokohama Railway. The Yokohama Railway was nationalized on 1 April 1910 and became part of the Japanese Government Railway (JGR) in 1917. The JGR became the Japan National Railway (JNR) after World War II. All freight operations were discontinued from 1 October 1977. With the privatization of the JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the operational control of JR East.
Station numbering was introduced on 20 August 2016 with Fuchinobe being assigned station number JH25.[1][2]
