History
Ranshima Station opened on 12 December 1902 when the private Hokkaido Railway established a track between it and
Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station. On 12 October 1909 the station became part of the Hakodate Main Line. On 1 April 1987, with the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, the station came under the control of JR Hokkaido.[2][4] From 1 October 2007, station numbering was introduced on JR Hokkaido lines, with Ranshima Station becoming "S17".[5]
