History
Mutsu-Morita Station opened on 21 October 1924 as a station on the Japanese Government Railways in the former village of Morita, on the Gonō Line 114.5 kilometres from Higashi-Noshiro. With the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on April 1, 1987, operational control passed to JR East. The station is now a kan'i itaku (simplified-consignment) stop administered by Goshogawara Station and operated by the Tsugaru municipal authority. The platform layout is a pair of opposed side platforms, but only one is in service, handling bidirectional traffic. A point-of-sales terminal in the station building handles ticketing during normal daylight hours.
