History

Daisenguchi Station opened on 17 September 1926 on the San'in Main Line between the Nawa temporary stop and Yodoe. On 28 July 1945 a train of two Red Cross marked carriages carrying wounded soldiers and nine civilian carriages carrying about 1,200 passengers was strafed and rocketed by three United States Navy F6F Hellcats roughly 600 metres east of the station; 44 people were killed and 33 severely injured. A memorial monument at the station marks the incident. The station passed to JR West at JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987 and became fully unstaffed in 2006. A new station building was completed in March 2020.

Notes

Daisenguchi is unusual on the Tottori section of the San'in Main Line in that its station building faces inland toward Mount Daisen rather than the Sea of Japan.
