Iyo-Tomita Station (伊予富田駅, Iyo-Tomita-eki) is a railway station on the Yosan Line in Imabari, Ehime Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by JR Shikoku and has the station number "Y39".[1][2]

Lines

The station is served by the JR Shikoku Yosan Line and is located 141.6 km from the beginning of the line at Takamatsu Station.[3] Only Yosan Line local trains stop at the station and they only serve the sector between Iyo-Saijō and Matsuyama. Connections with other local or limited express trains are needed to travel further east or west along the line.[4]

Layout

The station consists of two opposed side platforms serving two tracks. The station building is unstaffed and serves only as a waiting room. Access to the opposite platform, which also has a weather shelter, is by means of a footbridge. Parking is available at the station forecourt. A siding branches off line 1 and leads to a vehicle shed.[2][5][6][3]

History

The station opened on 11 February 1924 as an intermediate stop when the then Sanyo Line was extended westwards from Iyo-Sakurai to Imabari. At that time the station was operated by Japanese Government Railways, later becoming Japanese National Railways (JNR). With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku.[7][8]
