Location
History
Muko Station is an unstaffed halt on the JR West Hakubi Line in the town of Kōfu, Hino District, Tottori Prefecture. Opened on 23 August 1961 between Neu and Ebi stations as the newest stop on the Hakubi Line, it was built purely for passenger service by diesel railcars. The station consists of a single ground-level side platform with no station building, only a small waiting shelter, and is the only stop on the Hakubi Line without crossing facilities. It passed to JR West at the 1 April 1987 privatisation. In fiscal 2018 it averaged 43 passengers daily.
Notes
Muko is the only station on the entire Hakubi Line that lacks a passing loop.
