History
Noheiji Station was opened on September 1, 1891 as a station of the Nippon Railway. It was nationalized on July 1, 1906 and became a station of the Japanese Government Railways's Tōhoku Main Line. On March 20, 1921, it became the southern terminus of the Ōminato Line. After the end of World War II, the JGR became the Japan National Railways (JNR).
On March 15, 1954 a F-84 Thunderjet from nearby Misawa Air Base crashed on top of Noheji Station, destroying the station building and killing twelve people. The explosion left a crater thee meters wide and two meters deep, and set fire to one of the carriages of the Tōhoku Main Line. Platforms 1 through 3 were also destroyed. The pilot ejected, but his parachute failed to open and he was also killed.
From August 5, 1968, the Nanbu Jūkan Railway began operations from Noheji (operations ended in 1997). With the privatization of the JNR on April 1, 1987, it came under the operational control of JR East. The control of the Tōhoku Main Line (between Hachinohe and Aomori) was transferred to Aoimori Railway on December 4, 2010, the day the Tōhoku Shinkansen was extended to Shin-Aomori.
