History

Tadami Station opened by the Japanese National Railways (JNR) on October 20, 1963, as the terminus of an extension of the eastern section of the Tadami Line from the previous terminus at Aizu-Kawaguchi. In 1971, the line was extended from Tadami to Oshirakawa, thus joining the previously disconnected western and eastern sections of the Tadami Line.[1] The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of the JNR on April 1, 1987.

Due to damage caused by torrential rainfall on July 30, 2011, services between Tadami and Aizu-Kawaguchi stations were replaced by a provisional bus service. The closed section resumed operations on 1 October 2022.[2]

Passenger statistics

In fiscal 2017, the station was used by an average of 22 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).[3]
