History
Anebetsu Station opened on 25 November 1919 with the extension of the Imperial Railway Agency's Kushiro Main Line — later renamed the Nemuro Main Line — between Akkeshi and Attoko, in what is now Hamanaka Town. Originally a general station, it was reduced to a simple passenger halt on 15 April 1930 before later returning to general-station status; the building was rebuilt in 1942. Freight and parcel duties were withdrawn on 5 February 1973 when the station was demanned and reduced to a single track. The current waiting shelter dates from a station-building rebuild on 17 December 1979, and a new side platform was added on 22 March 1989. JR Hokkaido inherited the station at the 1 April 1987 privatisation.
Notes
The waiting shelter at Anebetsu shares its design with Shin-Yoshino Station and several other small stops on the line, giving the eastern Hokkaido coast a recognisably uniform JR look.
