History
Udono Station opened on 8 August 1940 as a stop on the Kisei West Line, in what is now the town of Kihō in Mie Prefecture. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987, passenger operations passed to JR Central, while the adjoining sidings and freight depot went to JR Freight. A three-kilometre private spur connected the station to a Hokuetsu Kishu Paper factory; freight services and the spur were abolished in 2016. The unstaffed station now consists of a single island platform reached from the station building by a level crossing, served by the Kisei Main Line.
