History
Gamō Station opened on 20 December 1899 in Koshigaya, Saitama, on the Tōbu Isesaki Line. It was relocated 1.2 km south to its present site on 25 December 1908. The northbound track was elevated on 8 October 1993, the southbound following on 12 November 1994, and a new station building was completed in 1998. As part of the system-wide rebranding to the Tōbu Skytree Line, departure melodies were introduced on 15 March 2012 and the designation TS-19 was assigned two days later. Platform-edge doors entered service on 8 October 2024, more than a century after the line first reached the site.

Notes
Gamō was not built on its original site — the original 1899 station was moved 1.2 km south on 25 December 1908 to better serve the growing settlement, an unusually early relocation for a Tōbu line stop.
