• Sakai Line: Sambommatsuguchi ⇄ Fujimicho (Tottori)

Gotō Station opened on 1 November 1902 when the state-built line from Mikuriya through Yonago to Sakai (now Sakaiminato) was inaugurated. In 1909 the route was formally designated as the Sakai Line. The station took its name from Gotō Kaigorō, a wealthy Yonago merchant who worked to bring the railway to the area. A north exit was added on 1 November 1986 to serve the nearby Yonago Hope Town development. The station passed to JR West at the JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987, and from March 2019 has accepted ICOCA via onboard IC readers. The line is electrified as far as this station to permit rolling-stock movements to and from the adjacent Gotō Depot.

Sakai Line stations all carry yōkai nicknames; Gotō's is "Dorotabō Station," after the muddy rice-paddy spirit.
