History
Isotake Station opened on 15 May 1917, when the Railway Bureau extended the San'in Main Line from Iwami-Ōda — now Ōdashi — to Niima, in present-day Ōda, Shimane Prefecture. The line was extended further to Asari on 25 November 1918. Freight handling was discontinued on 16 July 1975, the station became a commissioned operation on 20 June 1977, parcel handling ceased on 1 February 1984, and full destaffing followed on 14 March 1985. With the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR West. The station sits on an embankment with a single island platform serving two tracks, has no station building, and is bracketed on the timetable by Shizuma and Niima.
