• Inbi Line: Takagari ⇄ Inaba-Yashiro

Mochigase Station opened on 20 December 1919 as the southern terminus of the Railway Bureau's Inbi Light Railway in what is now Tottori. The line was extended south to Chizu on 5 June 1923, making the station a through station. With the rationalisation of light railways in 1922 the route was reclassified the Inbi Line, and successive renamings in 1928 and 1932 followed as the line was joined end-to-end between Tottori and Tsuyama. Freight handling ended on 1 October 1970 and baggage handling on 14 March 1985. With JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987 the station came under JR West, and the automatic ticket machine was removed on 12 February 2014.

Although express trains normally do not stop at Mochigase, the station temporarily receives limited-express service for the Nagashi-bina (floating-doll) festival held each year on the lunar third day of the third month.
