History
Megumino Station opened on 1 March 1982 as a passenger-only Japanese National Railways station on the Chitose Line, inserted between Shimamatsu and Eniwa to serve the new 'Eniwa New Town Megumino'. A municipal lobbying body formed in August 1979 secured approval for the station in May 1980, and an Itō-Yōkadō store opened in time for the inauguration. JR Hokkaido inherited the station at the 1987 privatisation. Automatic ticket gates entered service on 14 December 1998, and operations were contracted to Hokkaido JR Service Net on 1 April 2002. East-side lifts and escalators opened on 1 February 2005, full barrier-free works followed in 2006, Kitaca IC card service began on 25 October 2008, and 'speakable' ticket machines arrived on 14 March 2026.
Notes
The Itō-Yōkadō Eniwa store, drawn to the area to open in step with the station's inauguration in March 1982, served the Megumino district for 37 years before closing on 29 September 2019 and being demolished.
