• San'in Main Line: Amarube ⇄ Hamasaka

Kutani Station opened on 1 March 1912 as part of the Railway Agency's extension of the San'in Main Line between Kasumi and Hamasaka, in what is now the town of Shin'onsen in Mikata District, Hyōgo Prefecture. Freight handling was discontinued on 1 March 1963 and parcel service ended on 15 December 1970, when the station also became unstaffed. The station building was rebuilt in 1982, but it went out of use when the station was reduced to a single through track in 2012 and has since been demolished. The line passed to JR West at the 1 April 1987 privatisation of Japanese National Railways. The second platform was closed on 15 March 2008, leaving the station with a single side platform serving a bi-directional track at 191.8 kilometres from Kyoto.

On 27 December 1976 an assistant stationmaster from Kasumi Station was struck and killed by a train while clearing snow from the points at Kutani.
