History

Bingo-Yasuda Station opened on 15 November 1935 when the Ministry of Railways extended the Fukuen North Line (now part of the Fukuen Line) from Jōge to Kisa, in what was then Yasuda, Kisa-chō, Hiroshima Prefecture and is today the city of Miyoshi. On 28 July 1938 the Fukuen North Line was integrated into a single Fukuen Line, taking the station along with it. Freight handling was discontinued on 1 November 1961 and parcel service on 10 December 1970, and on 5 April 1983 the station was converted to a simplified-commission unstaffed stop. With the breakup of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 it came under JR West, which in 2008 ended the commission arrangement and turned the station into a fully unstaffed halt with no ticket vending machine.
