History
The station was opened on 8 November 1922 with the opening of the Japanese Government Railways (JGR) Teshio Line. On April 1, 1930 the Teshio Line was incorporated into the Sōya Main Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, JR Hokkaido took over control of the station. The old station building was demolished in September 1990 and new station building completed in January 1991. In July 2019 JR Hokkaido proposed to local governments along the Sōya Main Line that stations with an average daily passenger load of three or less, including this station, be either maintained by the local government or kept open at their own expense, or closed in March 2021. After that, Nakagawa Town announced that it would maintain this station.[4]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2022, the station was used by an average of 0.8 passengers daily.
