Location
History
Aonogō Station opened on 1 November 1940 between Wakasa-Takahama and Matsunoodera as a passenger-only stop on the government-owned Obama Line. Parcel handling ended and the station was destaffed in 1973, after which a commissioned ticket service continued. The station passed to JR West at JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987. The current log-cabin style station building was completed on 30 March 2004 as a joint facility named "Lodge Aoba". Commissioned ticket sales are scheduled to be withdrawn and the station made fully unstaffed on 1 April 2026.
Notes
Aonogō is the westernmost station in Fukui Prefecture and in the wider Chūbu region; its longitude is roughly equal to that of Osaka Station.
