History
Mobara Station opened on April 17, 1897 as Mohara Station (茂原駅, Mohara-eki) on the Bōsō Railway. It was absorbed into the Japanese Government Railways on September 1, 1907. From 1909-1926 it was also the terminal of the Chōnan-Mobara-Kan Jinsha Kidō (庁南茂原間人車軌道), a human-powdered railway extending to Chōnan, Chiba. On August 1, 1930, the station became the terminus of the Nansō Railway (南総鉄道, Nansō Tetsudō), which became the Sotobō Line from 1939. It was renamed to its present name on July 10, 1935. It joined the JR East network upon the privatization of the Japanese National Railways (JNR) on April 1, 1987.
