History
The station was opened on 1 November 1959 as the Nisshin Temporary Station on the Japanese National Railways, at the request of local residents and the city to develop tourism to a ski resort (Nisshin Shichisen Slope, now a mountain forest) located about 300 meters away from the station.With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Hokkaido and was upgraded to a full station. On 9 December 2020: JR Hokkaido announced that it would transfer maintenance management to the local government (Nayoro City) from fiscal year 2021. In June 2023, this station was selected to be among 42 stations on the JR Hokkaido network to be slated for abolition.[4]
