History
Yudakōgen Station opened on 25 December 1948 as Iwate-Yuda Station on the Japanese National Railways' Yokoguro Line, serving the village of Yuda in Waga District, Iwate Prefecture. Freight handling ended on 1 January 1970 and parcel service on 1 August 1970, leaving it unstaffed. With the 1987 privatisation of Japanese National Railways the station came under JR East. In February 1990 a combined building serving both as the station and a community hall was completed; its design won the Architectural Institute of Japan's Kasumigaseki Building Memorial Award. The station was renamed Yudakōgen on 20 June 1991. In late 2024 the community-hall portion was demolished, leaving only the waiting room.
Notes
The 1990 combined station and community-hall building won the Architectural Institute of Japan's Kasumigaseki Building Memorial Award.
