History

Ino Station opened on 15 November 1924 as an intermediate stop when the then Kōchi Line — later renamed the Dosan Line — was extended eastwards from Susaki to Kōchi. The station was initially operated by Japanese Government Railways and passed to Japanese National Railways before joining JR Shikoku at the 1 April 1987 privatisation. It is the principal station of Ino town in Agawa District, Kōchi Prefecture, and limited express services Nanpū, Shimanto, and Ashizuri all call here in addition to local Dosan Line trains. The Tosaden Kōtsū tramstop Ino-ekimae sits about 100 metres away, offering a transfer to the Ino Line.

Notes

In 1950 an Imperial special train carrying Emperor Shōwa stopped here for five minutes during a post-war regional tour, with a public welcome held in the station forecourt.
