Station mascot
Each station on the Asa Line features a cartoon mascot character designed by Takashi Yanase, a local cartoonist from Kōchi Prefecture. The mascot for Tōnohama Station is a figure dressed in the white pilgrim's garments and straw hat used by those on the Shikoku Pilgrimage. Named Tōnohama Hen-kun (とうのはま へんろ君), the character is chosen because the station is located near the Kōnomine-ji, the 27th Buddhist temple on the pilgrim trail and many pilgrims use the station throughout the year.[6]
History
The train station was opened on 1 July 2002 by the Tosa Kuroshio Railway as an intermediate station on its track from Gomen to Nahari.[7]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2011, the station was used by an average of 49 passengers daily.[7]
