History
Hachihama Station opened on 12 June 1910 as a stop on the new Uno Line. Freight handling ended in August 1961 after the line was electrified in 1960, and the station was made unstaffed and converted to a simple commissioned outlet on 1 May 1970. With JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR West. The opening of the Seto Ōhashi bridge on 10 April 1988 reduced through traffic on the Uno Line as the new Honshi-Bisan Line took over Shikoku-bound services. In March 2016, as part of the third Setouchi Triennale arts festival, the station building was repainted to a design by an Italian painter. Simple ICOCA card readers were installed on 16 March 2019.
Notes
In March 2016 the station building was repainted to a design by an Italian painter, an exhibited work of the third Setouchi Triennale under the JR Uno-Minato Line Art Project.
