• Shido Line: Yakuri-Shinmichi ⇄ Fusazaki

Shioya Station opened on 18 November 1911 on the Tosan Electric Tramway and followed the standard Kagawa lineage: it passed to Shikoku Hydroelectric in 1916, then to Sanuki Electric Railway in 1942, and on 1 November 1943 became part of the Takamatsu-Kotohira Electric Railroad's Shido Line during wartime consolidation. Operations between Yakuri Station and this point were suspended on 26 January 1945 under wartime line-suspension policy, and were not restored until 9 October 1949. The unattended at-grade station, designated S12, has a single side platform serving a bi-directional track and lies 10.0 km from Kawaramachi. A seasonal flag stop named Shioya-Kaisuiyokujō-mae once stood between this station and Fusazaki.

Between Shioya and the neighbouring Fusazaki, the Shido Line skirts Fusazaki Cape with a sharp curve along Shido Bay — a stretch popular among railway photographers.
