History
Iyo-Wake Station opened on 3 April 1927 as an intermediate stop when the Sanyo Line (the predecessor name applied to part of today's Yosan Line) was extended from Iyo-Hōjō to Matsuyama under Japanese Government Railways. It later passed to Japanese National Railways and, on 1 April 1987, to JR Shikoku at privatisation. The original station building burned down on 11 April 1988 — reportedly from a passenger's discarded cigarette — and the present building opened on 21 November 1990. Freight handling on a dedicated Iseki Agricultural Machinery siding ended in 1982, and parcel service ceased in 1985 when the station became unstaffed.
Notes
When the current station building was completed in 1990 it housed a JR Shikoku-direct Japanese restaurant; an okonomiyaki shop occupied the space from January 2018 to December 2023, and an izakaya named "70 (NANAMARU)" moved in from January 2024.
