History

Futana Station opened on 18 October 1914 as Nakano Station, a stop on the narrow-gauge Uwajima Railway line between Uwajima and Chikanaga, in what is now the Mima district of Uwajima, Ehime Prefecture. With the nationalisation of the Uwajima Railway on 1 August 1933 the station came under Japanese Government Railways and was renamed Futana. Privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 transferred it to JR Shikoku, where it sits on the Yodo Line 66.9 km from Wakai as station G43. The station was operated through a local agency for much of its later JR-era life before becoming fully unstaffed on 1 September 2016.

Notes

The shelter on Futana's single platform shares a design with other small Yodo Line stops such as Muden and Ōuchi; traces of the demolished station building can still be seen in the forecourt.
