Ina-Yawata

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Ina-Yawata Station opened on 17 December 1926 as the terminus of an Ina Electric Railway extension from Iida; it became an intermediate stop on 5 February 1927 when the line was pushed further to a provisional Kega terminus. The Ina Electric line was absorbed into the Iida Line on 1 August 1943 under wartime nationalisation. Carload freight ended on 1 July 1975, the station became an outsourced operation in February 1984, and the parcels service was withdrawn in March 1985. With the 1 April 1987 breakup of Japanese National Railways, the stop joined JR Central. It was made unstaffed at night in 1992 and fully unstaffed in March 1994.

In the days when the Iida Line ran express services, Ina-Yawata was one of the designated express stops.
