History
Aimoto Station opened on 21 November 1923 when the Kurobe Railway extended its line from Oritate to Tōbara (today's Unazuki-Onsen). It was originally built to handle materials traffic for the Shin-Aimoto substation of what is now Kansai Electric Power. After the 1943 wartime consolidation of Toyama's railway operators the station passed to Toyama Chihō Railway, and the line voltage was raised from 600 V to 1500 V on 11 November of that year. Freight handling ended on 1 September 1967, route names were reorganised on 1 April 1969, the station was destaffed on 25 April 1994, and from 14 March 2015 limited-express services no longer call here.
Notes
One of Aimoto Station's original purposes was hauling construction materials to the nearby Shin-Aimoto substation, today operated by Kansai Electric Power Transmission and Distribution.
