History
Kazusa-Yamada Station opened on 7 March 1925 on the privately operated Kominato Line as Yōrōgawa Station. It took its current name on 1 December 1954. The station has been unstaffed since 16 April 2005. The original wooden station building — now well over a century old — was recommended for inclusion on the national Registered Tangible Cultural Properties list on 18 November 2016 and formally listed as the 'Kominato Railway Kazusa-Yamada Station Main Building' on 2 May 2017. The platform layout is two opposed side platforms linked by a level crossing, with a ticket machine and flush toilets inside the building; a siding by platform 1 was used to deliver KiHa 40 cars and Satoyama Trolley equipment.
