Notes
Ueta is an unstaffed surface station with two side platforms serving two tracks and passing-loop facilities, used as a train-meet point for test runs (Atsumi Line station number 8). The Ueta Substation, with two 1,000 kW transformers, is near the station. During World War II a 3 km branch from this station to the Ōsaki Naval Air Group was under construction but cancelled mid-project; the alignment was converted into farm roads.
