History
Sawara Station was opened on February 3, 1898 as a terminal station on the Narita Railway Company for both freight and passenger operations. The Narita Railway was nationalised on September 1, 1920, becoming part of the Japanese Government Railway (JGR). The line was extended to Sasagawa on November 10, 1931. After World War II, the JGR became the Japan National Railways (JNR). Scheduled freight operations were suspended from February 1, 1984. The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of the Japan National Railways (JNR) on April 1, 1987. The station building was rebuilt from 2007–2011.
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 3090 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).[1]
