• Shido Line: Katamoto ⇄ Oki-Matsushima

Kasugagawa Station opened on 18 November 1911 on the Tosan Electric Tramway, which connected Takamatsu with the Shido area. After a corporate merger in 1916, the station passed to Shikoku Hydroelectric, and from 1942 to Sanuki Electric Railway. On 1 November 1943 it became part of Takamatsu-Kotohira Electric Railroad's Shido Line during wartime consolidation of Kagawa's small operators. The unstaffed at-grade station has two opposed side platforms serving two tracks, connected by a level crossing rather than a station building. Designated station S04, Kasugagawa sits 3.0 km from Kawaramachi and is named for the nearby Kasuga River, although reaching the river from the station requires a circuitous detour through residential streets.

An old electric board on platform 1 lights up only the kanji of the preceding station's name to announce that the next train has just departed from there.
