No publicly available departure data for this station.

Tōin Station opened on 26 March 2005 on the Sangi Railway Hokusei Line in the town of Tōin, Mie Prefecture, as part of a Mie-prefecture proposal to improve the rural narrow-gauge line's convenience. Its construction merged the two pre-existing stations of Roppano (六把野) and Kita-Ōyashiro (北大社, now Kita-Ōyashiro signal box), both of which were abolished on the same date; the new station sits between them along Mie Prefectural Road 142. Automatic ticket-gates and fare-adjustment machines were installed on 22 June 2005. After a derailment north of the station on 11 April 2006, bus replacement substituted for trains for over a month. On 26 March 2008 the access road was widened, on 7 December 2008 the Fujikawa bridge was rebuilt and the section straightened, on 28 February 2009 a safety side-track was added, and on 19 March 2010 a further 43-space car park brought total free parking to 124 spaces. The station carries number H09.

Tōin Station's driver control room handles dispatch for the entire Hokusei Line: signal control, station and crossing monitoring across all stations except Nishi-Kuwana, substation remote monitoring, train-radio and wind-speed monitoring at three points. The driver/conductor depot previously hosted at Nishi-Kuwana (former Kintetsu Shiohama Train Depot Nishi-Kuwana Branch) was integrated into Tōin when the station opened; relocating an entire line's dispatch centre overnight is rare among small private railways in Japan.
