History

[edit]

In 1889, when the section of the Tōkaidō Main Line connecting Shizuoka with Kōzu was completed, stations were built at Suzukawa (Yoshiwara) and Iwabuchi (Fujikawa), with Kashima village in between without a train station. Due to the strong petition of the local residents, and political pressure applied by Oji Paper Company, who had established a paper mill nearby, a station was opened on April 21, 1909 and named “Fuji Station”. The terminus of the Minobu Line was established at Fuji Station on July 13, 1913. The station building was rebuilt in 1964. Container freight services began operations from 1994.

Station numbering was introduced in March 2018; Fuji Station was assigned station number CA09 for the Tōkaidō Line and CC00 for the Minobu Line.[1][2]

Passenger statistics

[edit]

In fiscal 2017, the station was used by an average of 9462 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).[3]
