History
editHaranomachi Station opened on 3 April 1898.[1] With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR East.[1]
Train services from the station were suspended following the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on 11 March 2011. From 21 December 2011, limited services were restored on the section of the Joban Line between Haranomachi and Sōma.[2]
In March 2016, the two trains, a four-car 651 series (Super Hitachi) EMU and a 415-1500 series EMU, stranded at the station since the March 2011 tsunami, were removed by road for scrapping.[3]
The section of the Joban Line between Odaka and Haranomachi reopened on 12 July 2016.[4]
