Location

History

Inō Station opened on 16 May 1929 as a temporary stop on the Ube Electric Railway, then running between Oki-no-Yama Kyūkō (later Ube-kō) and Shin-Okiyama via Suzumeda. It was relocated to its present site and elevated to a full station on 6 November 1938. The operator merged into Ube Railway in December 1941, and the line was nationalised in May 1943 as the Ube Nishi Line, taking its current Onoda Line designation in February 1948. A 1952 realignment also routed the Ube Line through Inō. JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987 transferred operations to JR West. The station was contracted out from April 1998 and fully destaffed on 1 April 2002.

Notes

The Onoda Line nominally begins at Inō, but operationally every Onoda Line train runs through to terminate one station further at Ube-Shinkawa.
