However, they changed their minds after they discovered a young girl used the station to go to high school every day.
For years now trains have stopped at the station just for her.
Japan Railway will keep the train station open until she leaves school.
The girl is expected to graduate on March 26, 2016, when the station will then be closed.
Every day only two trains stop at the Kami-Shirataki station with a unique timetable depending on when the girl needs to go to school and back.
