History
Sarayama Station's predecessor, the Takao provisional halt, opened on 20 December 1933 on the Chūgoku Railway main line (now the Tsuyama Line) between Kamenokō and Tsuyamaguchi. The Takao halt was abolished on 15 June 1937 and the present Sarayama halt opened in its place. Nationalisation of the Chūgoku Railway on 1 June 1944 brought it under JNR's Tsuyama Line, where it was upgraded to a full station the same day. Luggage handling ended and the station was destaffed on 15 November 1971. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 it passed to West Japan Railway Company, and a new glass-fronted station building entered service in March 2019. The station serves Tsuyama, Okayama Prefecture, with a single side platform.
