History
Kasashiho Station opened on 31 October 1928 as part of the Ministry of Railways' Nanao Line extension between Wakura (now Wakura-Onsen) and Noto-Nakajima. Built as a petition station at the request of the local Kasashiho village, it was sited at the residents' wish in the Shiotsu district, in what is now the Nakajima area of Nanao. Freight handling ceased in 1960, and the station became unstaffed in 1972. Upon the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR West, and on 1 September 1991 the Wakura-Onsen–Wajima section of the Nanao Line was transferred to the third-sector Noto Railway, which still operates the station today.
Notes
The wooden station building dates from the 1928 opening and was renovated in 2015 with heart motifs on the entrance ridgepole, matching the station's nickname "Koibi-eki" (love-fire station), taken from the local Shiozu lantern festival.
