Three months later, on 5 April 1915, a new Matsumoto Station was built, and the original station was renamed Kita-Matsumoto and used for freight operations only. Passenger operations resumed on 18 September 1916. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR East. A new elevated station building was completed in April 2000.[1]
