Location
History
Shindō Station was opened on 15 July 1921 as a general station on the Imperial Government Railways' Kansai Main Line between Tsuge and Sanagu. Freight handling ceased on 1 August 1970 and the station was made unstaffed on 1 April 1983. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 the station became part of JR West. The South-Side Area Improvement Project was completed on 31 July 2002, leaving a simplified station building with only a ticket window on the island platform. ICOCA service began on 13 March 2021. Soon after, on 1 July 2021, the Kameyama Rail Office was dissolved and its functions transferred to the new Kameyama Operating Section, the Suita General Vehicle Office's Kyoto Branch Kameyama outpost, and the Kameyama Command Office.
Notes
The station building that had stood since the 1921 opening survived as a waiting room after the 2002 rebuild, but in September 2019 it was reported that JR West planned to demolish it because of deterioration; the old building was torn down in June 2020.
