History

Bizen-Kataoka Station opened on 1 January 1939 as an intermediate stop on the Uno Line, 20.9 kilometres from the terminus of the line. With the privatisation of the Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR West, which still operates it today. The station consists of two opposed ground-level side platforms linked by a footbridge and is unattended; in fiscal 2019 it averaged 235 passengers per day.
