History
Ōdate Station opened on November 15, 1899,[1] on the Japanese Government Railways (JGR). The privately owned Kosaka Line began operations in 1909, and the privately owned Akita Railway began operations from July 1, 1914.[citation needed] The Hanaoka Line opened on January 26, 1916.[citation needed] The Akira Railway was nationalized on June 1, 1934.[citation needed] A statue of Hachikō was first erected in front of the station in July 1935, but was subsequently melted down for its metal content in World War II, and was not restored until November 1986.[citation needed] After World War II, the JGR became the Japanese National Railways (JNR). The Hanaoka Line closed on April 1, 1985.[citation needed] The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987. Kosaka Line passenger operations ceased on October 1, 1994, and freight operations ended on March 12, 2008.[citation needed]
