History
Kojōhama Station opened on 5 August 1928 as a general station on the Ministry of Railways' Muroran Main Line. Freight handling ended on 1 August 1960, and parcels on 15 May 1980, when the station was unstaffed and placed under simple commission. The current station building was put up in January 1981, and JR Hokkaido inherited the station at the 1987 privatisation. The ground-level station has two staggered side platforms connected by a footbridge; the building stands on the up-line platform.
Notes
The name Kojōhama uses the kanji for Japanese knotweed (kojō / itadori); the original Ainu place name kuttar-us-i meant 'place where Japanese knotweed grows thickly'.
