Fusamoto Station (総元駅, Fusamoto-eki) is a railway station operated by the Isumi Railway Company's Isumi Line, located in Isumi, Chiba Prefecture Japan. It is 22.2 kilometers from the eastern terminus of the Izumi Line at Ōhara Station.

History

Fusamoto Station was opened on February 1, 1937 as the terminal station of the Japanese Government Railway (JGR) Kihara Line. The line was extended to its present terminus at Kazusa-Nakano on August 26, 1934. Scheduled freight services were discontinued from September 1969 and the station has been unattended since May 10, 1974. With the division and privatization of the Japan National Railways (JNR) on April 1, 1987, the station was acquired by the East Japan Railway Company. On March 24, 1988, the Kihara Line became the Isumi Railroad Isumi Line. In 1992, the station building was completely rebuilt.
