Location
History
Hina Station opened on 20 December 1951 as a Gakunan Railway station, and on the same day a dedicated freight siding to the Daishowa Paper Yoshinaga Plant entered service. Additional yard tracks east of the station were added in 1969. Hina was the terminus for all Gakunan Railway freight operations until the line's container and wagonload services to neighbouring industrial plants were discontinued; with the end of freight workings on 16 March 2012 the station became unstaffed. Operation transferred from Gakunan Railway to Gakunan Electric Train on 1 April 2013. In November 2015 a model-railway shop moved into the former station building, repurposing the ticket window and staff room as retail and layout space.
Notes
Hina Station was used as a filming location for the Nippon Television drama "anone", standing in for the station where the protagonist alights and the station used when heading to the coast; the neighbouring Gakunan-Harada Station was also used for filming.
