History
Kominato Station was opened on September 1, 1891 as a station on the Nippon Railway. It became a station on the Tōhoku Main Line of the Japanese Government Railways (JGR), the pre-war predecessor to the Japan National Railways (JNR), after the nationalization of the Nippon Railway on November 1, 1906. Regularly scheduled freight services were discontinued in February 1962. With the privatization of the JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the operational control of East Japan Railway Company (JR East). From April 1, 2004 it had been operated by Jaster Co., Ltd., with ticketing window for ordinary tickets, express tickets, and reserved-seat tickets for all JR lines.
The section of the Tōhoku Main Line including this station was transferred to Aoimori Railway on December 4, 2010.

However, only tracks 1 and 3 are in use, and the rails for track 2 are used only as a siding, giving the station an effective structure of two opposed side platforms. The station building is attended, and has a Green Window service counter.
