History
Teshiogawa-Onsen Station began as the Minamisakkuru Temporary Station (南咲来仮乗降場) on 1 July 1956, and was renamed Teshiogawa Onsen Temporary Station (天塩川温泉仮乗降場) on 1 July 1981. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 1 April 1987, it was upgraded to a full passenger station and came under the control of JR Hokkaido.
In June 2023, this station was selected to be among 42 stations on the JR Hokkaido network to be slated for abolition owing to low ridership.[4] In December 2020 JR Hokkaido announced that maintenance and management would be transferred to Otoineppu Village from fiscal year 2021
Passenger statistics
During the period between fiscal 2011 and 2015, the station was used on average by less than one passenger daily.
