Otoineppu

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Otoineppu Station opened on 5 November 1912 as part of the Railway Agency's Sōya Line when the route was extended from Onnenai. Within a decade it had become a junction of regional importance: the branch that later became the Tempoku Line opened in November 1914, and the Teshio Line opened from the station in November 1922. The station was a base for locomotive crews from 1919, when the Nayoro engine depot's Otoineppu sub-depot was established, until that sub-depot was abolished in 1978. With the dissolution of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR Hokkaido. After the Tempoku Line shut in 1989, the wooden building was replaced in 1990 by the village-funded Otoineppu Transport Terminal.

Among the stations where JR limited-express trains call, Otoineppu is the one located in the least-populous municipality.
