History
Yamoto Station opened on November 22, 1928 as a station on the Miyagi Electric Railway. The Miyagi Electric Railway was nationalized on May 1, 1944. The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987.
The station was closed from March 11, 2011 due to damage to the line associated with the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, and services were replaced by provisional bus services. [1] Services reopened on July 16, 2011 to Ishinomaki and on March 17, 2012 to Rikuzen-Ono; services past Rikuzen-Ono the direction of Sendai were resumed on May 30, 2015.[2]
