Location

History

Bingo-Yano Station opened on 28 July 1938 when the Railway Ministry extended the Fukuen Line northward from Fuchūmachi (now Fuchū) toward Jōge. At the time it served Yano Village in Kōnu District; freight handling was discontinued in November 1961 and parcel handling in December 1970. The station was converted to a contract-managed stop in April 1983, and ownership passed to JR West with the 1987 break-up of Japanese National Railways. The remaining ticket-agency arrangement was withdrawn on 1 April 2008, leaving the station unstaffed. A single island platform with two tracks allows train crossings, and the station building on the west side of the line includes a folk-craft shop and an udon and soba restaurant.

Notes

The station building doubles as a folk-craft outlet and a noodle shop called "Kasuriya" that sells "Fukuen udon" (福縁うどん), a pun on the name of the Fukuen Line (福塩線).
