History
The line was initially constructed by Ministry of Railways as Kuroishi Light railway line in August 1912. The phrase "Light railway" was removed from the name of the line in 1922. The line suffered from the decrease in passengers due to the opening of the Kōnan Railway Kōnan Line in 1950. In 1968, the Kōnan Railway offered to take over the operation of the line. The line was listed in the 1st phase of Specified local lines due to low passengers, and it was transferred to Konan Railway on 1984. However, through services through the Gonō Line were abolished, and overall fares were raised when the line was transferred which resulted in further decline in usage. The line closed in 1998 due to the lack of users, and the line was turned into a bus route operated by the name company.[2][3]
