History
Takataki Station opened on 7 March 1925 on the Kominato Railway's Kominato Line in Ichihara, Chiba Prefecture, 23.8 kilometres from the line's western terminus at Goi. The station has been unstaffed since 1967, and use of its island platform was discontinued on 16 September 1998, with only a single side platform now serving bidirectional traffic. The overgrown remains of the opposite platform are still visible. A small wooden waiting room remains in place of the original station building, with no ticket gate. The Kominato Railway company continues to operate the line as a third-sector private railway.
