• Dosan Line: Rokutanji ⇄ Kubokawa

Niida Station was opened by Japanese National Railways on 12 November 1951 as an intermediate stop when the Dosan Line was extended westward from Kageno to Kubokawa. Postal-style parcel delivery handling ended on 1 October 1969, and the station was unstaffed and converted to simple-commission status on 1 October 1970, when freight and small-parcel handling were also discontinued. Control passed to JR Shikoku at the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987. The station, numbered K25, consists of a single side platform that retains traces of its former island-platform layout, served by a single track after one track was removed. The concrete waiting-room building can be sealed off with glass doors against the cold mountain winters, a rarity among JR Shikoku unstaffed stations.

Because Karasuyama Line's Niida Station shares the same kanji (仁井田) but is read "Niita", JR Shikoku tickets here are printed with the disambiguator "(土)仁井田" to indicate the Dosan Line station.
