History

Shisui Station was opened on January 19, 1897 as a station on the Narita Railway Company for both freight and passenger operations. The Narita Railway was nationalized on September 1, 1920, becoming part of the Japanese Government Railway (JGR). After World War II, the JGR became the Japan National Railways (JNR). Scheduled freight operations were suspended from November 1, 1961. The station has been unattended since March 15, 1974. The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of the Japan National Railways (JNR) on April 1, 1987. A new station building was completed in 1989, allowing the station to be once again staffed.

Passenger statistics

In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 3689 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).
