History
Tsukuno Station opened on 1 September 1960 on JNR's Hanwa Line between Uenoshiba and Ōtori, set up to serve the Mukōgaoka housing development. The site lay in the former Tsukubuo Village, whose kanji (踞尾) JNR considered too obscure for a station name; after consultation with locals the long-standing alternative reading "Tsukuno" was adopted, and the surrounding district was renamed in step four years later. With JNR's privatisation on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR West. Automatic ticket gates entered service on 23 May 1998, ICOCA on 1 November 2003, and lifts in March 2009. On 15 April 2012 the staffed Midori-no-Madoguchi was replaced by a Midori-no-Kembaiki Plus machine — a first for the Hanwa Line. Station numbering JR-R32 followed on 17 March 2018.
