History

Ōnogō Signal Box (多ノ郷信号場, Ōnogō-shingō-ba) was opened on 20 June 1942 along the existing Dosan Line track. The facility was closed on 1 September 1945 but reopened on 10 July 1946. On 1 June 1947, it was upgraded to a full passenger station. At that time, the station was operated by Japanese National Railways (JNR). With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku and JR Freight. Freight operations ceased on 1 October 1992.[3][7]
