History

Hayashino Station opened on November 28, 1934 as part of the Himetsu-Sai Line (now part of the Kishin Line) between Higashi-Tsuyama and Mimasaka-Emi. The line was incorporated into the Himeji-route Himetsu Line in 1936 and renamed the Kishin Line later that year. The station originally had an island platform with two tracks but one side was removed and is now the site of an apartment building. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways on April 1, 1987 it came under West Japan Railway Company. A replacement station building was completed in February 2021. The station is the representative stop for Mimasaka City.

Notes

A 1947 imperial special train carried Emperor Hirohito out of Hayashino as part of his postwar regional tours.
