History

Ukahongō Station opened on 19 July 1958 as a new stop on the Japanese National Railways San'in Main Line between Nagato-Futami and Yutama. It has been an unstaffed halt for passengers only since its inception, and transferred to JR West with the JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987. Located in the city of Shimonoseki in Yamaguchi Prefecture, the station consists of a single side platform serving one bi-directional track, and lies 643.5 km from the Kyoto end of the line. Service was suspended from 1 July 2023 after the Awano River bridge tilted in heavy rain damage on the Nagato-Awano–Agawa section, with replacement buses operating from 4 July, and rail service resumed between Takibe and Kogushi on 22 June 2024.

Notes

Fiscal 2020 saw an average of two boarding passengers a day, and in fiscal 2023 the figure dropped to zero — a total of 153 boardings over the entire year.
