History
Aizu-Ōshio Station opened on 1 February 1965 on the Japanese National Railways Tadami Line, as an intermediate stop on the extension between Aizu-Kawaguchi and Tadami in the town of Kaneyama, Ōnuma District, Fukushima Prefecture. The single side platform is only long enough for one carriage; multi-car trains use door-cutting at the forward carriage. Operations passed to JR East on 1 April 1987 with the privatisation of JNR. Service through the station was suspended after torrential rain on 30 July 2011 destroyed sections of the line, replaced by a provisional bus service for more than eleven years. The full Tadami Line resumed operation on 1 October 2022.

Notes
Nearby Ōshio Onsen is fed by natural carbonated mineral water — among the few cold-carbonated springs in Japan.
