• Iwate Galaxy Railway Line: Okunakayama-Kogen ⇄ Iwate-Numakunai

Mido Station began on 1 November 1918 as a signal stop on what was then a key Tohoku-area main line. It was upgraded to a full passenger station on 15 April 1961 and absorbed into JR East at the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. With the opening of the Tohoku Shinkansen extension to Hachinohe on 1 December 2002, the parallel conventional line through Mido was transferred to the third-sector Iwate Ginga Railway, which now operates the station. Mido has two opposed side platforms connected to the station building by a footbridge and remains staffed.
