Lines
Kikuma Station is served by the JR Shikoku Yosan Line and is located 165.9 km from the beginning of the line at Takamatsu Station.[3] Only Yosan Line local trains stop at the station and they only serve the sector between Iyo-Saijō and Matsuyama. Connections with other local or limited express trains are needed to travel further east or west along the line.[4]
Layout
The station, which is unstaffed, consists of two staggered opposed side platforms serving two tracks. A station building serves as a waiting room and is linked to platform 1. Access to platform 2 is by means of a footbridge. Parking is available at the station forecourt and there is a designated parking area for bicycles. A siding branches off line 1 and leads to an area behind and to one side of the station building and is used mainly by track maintenance equipment.[2][5][6][3]

History
Kikuma Station opened on 21 June 1925 as the terminus of the then Sanyo Line when it was extended westwards from Ōnishi. It became a through-station on 28 March 1926 when the line was further extended to Iyo-Hōjō. At that time the station was operated by Japanese Government Railways, later becoming Japanese National Railways (JNR). With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku.[7][8]
