History

The station opened on April 10, 1928, as Tomiyama Station (富山駅) on the Miyagi Electric Railway.[1] The line was nationalized on May 1, 1944 and the station was renamed Rikuzen-Tomiyama at that time.[1] The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987.[1]

The station was closed from March 11, 2011 due to damage to the line associated with the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, and services replaced by a provisional bus rapid transit service.[2] The station was reopened on 30 May 2015.[3]
