History
Inokuchi Station opened on 1 August 1937 on what is today the Hokuriku Railroad Ishikawa Line, in present-day Hakusan, Ishikawa Prefecture. The station has a single side platform and is unstaffed, with numbering identifying it as I14. Until the mid-Shōwa period the surrounding area was largely uninhabited and most limited-stop trains passed through, but suburban housing estates such as Meikō, Morishima and Hyūga grew rapidly from the mid-1960s onward; by around 1981 all trains stopped here. An extension added to the station building toward the Tsurugi end, originally built so that three-car rush-hour formations of the older rolling stock could be handled, is still visible today.
Notes
When the Emperor travels along the nearby road — most recently in May 1983 — temporary station staff are deployed at both Inokuchi and neighbouring Dōhōji and trains are held for a longer stop.
