History
Iyo-Ōhira Station was opened by Japanese National Railways on 3 March 1986 as one of three intermediate stations on a newly built stretch of track linking Mukaibara with the existing Uchiko Line at Uchiko, completing what became the Uchiko branch of the Yosan Line. The station is located in the city of Iyo in Ehime Prefecture and carries the number U07. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987 control passed to JR Shikoku. South of the station the route enters the 6,012-metre Inuyose Tunnel, the longest railway tunnel on Shikoku. The unstaffed station has a single side platform on an embankment.
