History
Taki Station opened on 10 August 1913 as Kari-Takino Station on the Banshū Railway's Kunikane (now Yakujin) – Nishiwaki section, passenger-only. On 28 August 1913 it was downgraded to a stop and renamed Taki Stop. The station was suspended on 1 January 1914 and reopened on 1 May 1914, then downgraded to a temporary stop on 9 May 1921. The line was transferred to the Bantan Railway on 21 December 1923. The Bantan Railway was bought out by the state in June 1943, and Taki was elevated to permanent-station status on 1 June 1943 as a station on the government railways' Kakogawa Line. It became unstaffed on 1 August 1949. With the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 it joined JR West. The Kakogawa Railway Department was formed on 1 June 1990 and Taki was placed under its jurisdiction; that department was abolished on 1 July 2009 and the station was transferred to direct Kobe Branch jurisdiction under Kakogawa Station. ICOCA simplified IC-only ticket gates began on 26 March 2016.
Notes
Taki averaged 59 daily boarding passengers in fiscal 2024. The station's main visible landmark is the Tōryūnada Rapids — a famous scenic spot where the mid-Kakogawa River's flow cuts through a rocky stretch, with small inns dotted around.
