Lines

Iyo-Izushi Station is located on the older, original, branch of the Yosan Line which runs along the coast from Mukaibara to Iyo-Ōzu and is 235.9 km from the beginning of the line at Takamatsu.[3] Only local trains stop at the station. Eastbound local services end at Matsuyama. Connections with other services are needed to travel further east of Matsuyama on the line.[4]

Layout

The station, which is unstaffed, consists of a side platform serving a single track. There is no station building, only a shelter on the platform for waiting passengers. A flight of steps leads up to the platform from the access road. A bike shed is provided nearby.[2][5][3]


History

The station opened as Jyoromatsu Station (上老松駅, Jyoromatsu-eki) on 14 February 1918. At that time, it was an intermediate station on the privately run 762 mm gauge Ehime Railway between Ōzu (now

Japanese Government Railways (JGR) assumed control and operated the station as part of the Ehime Line. When the track was regauged to 1067 mm and Iyo-Nagahama was linked up with Kitanada on 6 October 1935, the entire stretch including Jyoromatsu became part of the Yosan Mainline from Takamatsu to Iyo-Ōzu. On 1 April 1950, Jyoromatsu was renamed Iyo-Izushi. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Shikoku.[6][7]
