History
The station was opened on 19 August 1899 as Kawashima Station by the privately run Tokushima Railway as the terminus of a line from Tokushima. It became a through-station on 23 December 1899 when the line was extended to Yamase. When the company was nationalized on 1 September 1907, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station and operated it as part of the Tokushima Line (later the Tokushima Main Line). On 25 March 1914 it was renamed Shingo Station (神後駅, Shingo-eki). On 1 July 1915 it was renamed Awa-Kawashima. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Shikoku. On 1 June 1988, the line was renamed the Tokushima Line.[7][8]
