History
Kunda Station opened on 12 April 1924 as an intermediate station on the Maizuru–Miyazu segment of the government-built Miyazu Line, then operated by the Ministry of Railways and later the Japanese National Railways. Freight handling ended in 1962 and parcel handling in 1984; the station was reduced to an unstaffed single-line stop in 1985. At the JNR breakup on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR West, and on 1 April 1990 the Miyazu Line as a whole was transferred to the third-sector Kitakinki Tango Railway. From 1 April 2015 the line has been operated by WILLER Trains as the Kyoto Tango Railway Miyamai Line, where Kunda is station M13.
Notes
Kunda is known for its hard-to-read name: 栗田 is read "Kunda." It is a kan'i itaku (simply entrusted) station, where the ticket window and ticket machine operate only during limited morning and afternoon hours on weekdays; at all other times, and all day on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, no tickets can be bought at the station.
