• Kakogawa Line: Takino ⇄ Aonogahara

Yashirochō Station opened on August 10, 1913 as Yashiroguchi Station with the Banshū Railway's extension between present-day Yakujin and Nishiwaki, in what is now Katō, Hyōgo Prefecture. It was renamed Bantetsu-Yashiro Station on November 22, 1916, transferred to the Bantan Railway on December 21, 1923, and renamed to its present form on June 1, 1943 when the line was nationalized into the JNR Kakogawa Line. Freight handling ended on October 1, 1974 and parcel service on March 14, 1985. The station passed to JR West at JNR privatization on April 1, 1987 and became unstaffed on October 1, 1990, with ICOCA service introduced on March 26, 2016.

The station name comes from the former town of Yashiro in Katō District, but the station itself stands across the Kako River in the area that used to be Takino — the historical 'Yashiro' centre is over two kilometres east.
