The company was founded in 1928 and its initial line, the Sangi Line, originally functioned as a freight line transporting cement,[1] but later developed into an important commuter railway line for Yokkaichi. The Hokusei Line was transferred from Kintetsu ownership in 2003 when Kintetsu abandoned the line. Whereas the Sangi Line has a track gauge of Template:RailGauge, the Hokusei Line is one of only a few Template:RailGauge narrow gauge lines remaining in the country.[1]

Passenger services were introduced in 1952, and in 1954, the line was electrified at 1,500 V DC, and the company purchased an electric locomotive from JNR to haul its cement trains. CTC signalling was commissioned on the line in 1974.
