Lines
Although Kitayama Station is officially on the Uchiko Line, JR Shikoku runs it operationally as part of Yosan Line and as such it only carries the "U" prefix common to other Yosan line stations. It is located 236.1 km from the beginning of the Yosan line at Template:STN.[3] Only local trains stop at the station. Eastbound local trains which serve the station terminate at Template:STN while westbound local trains terminate at Template:STN or Template:STN. Connections with other services are needed to travel further east of Matsuyama or further west of Iyo-Ōzu/Yawatahama on the line.[4]
Layout
The station consists of a side platform serving a single track. There is no station building, only a shelter on the platform for waiting passengers. A ramp leads up to the platform from the access road.[2][5][3]
History
The station was opened on 1 February 1920 as a station of the private Script error: No such module "Nihongo"., a Template:RailGauge light railway line from Script error: No such module "Nihongo"., near Nagahama-machi (the present Template:STN) to Template:STN. On October 1, 1933, the line was nationalized and Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over and operated the station as part of the Script error: No such module "Nihongo".. On October 6, 1935, after the track had been re-gauged to 1,067 mm, the station became part of the Uchiko Line. Subsequently, Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, undertook the construction of the Uchiko branch of the Yosan Line which involved building a new stretch of track from Template:STN to Uchiko. The station became part of this branch on 3 March 1986. It was still designated as a station on the Uchiko Line but was now operated as part of the Yosan Line. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku.[6][7]
