History

Tottori Station opened on 5 April 1908 once a new Sendaigawa bridge carried the official line across the river, replacing a provisional Tottori stop opened on 28 April 1907. The 1909 line designations made it part of the San'in Main Line, and the Imbi Light Railway opening on 20 December 1919 gave it a junction role. A second-generation station building opened in 1937. The station was elevated on 8 November 1978, with freight handling moved to Koyama in 1974. JR West took over with the 1 April 1987 JNR breakup, and on 15 March 2025 ICOCA service and automatic ticket gates began on the Kurayoshi side.

Notes

When Emperor Shōwa visited Tottori Prefecture on 27 November 1947 during his postwar tours, an imperial train departed from Tottori, and a crowd surge on Platform 2 during the departure left people dead and injured.
