• JR Kosei Line: Hōrai ⇄ Ono (Shiga)

Wani Station opened on 20 July 1974 with the completion of the Kosei Line, then operated by Japanese National Railways. With the JNR breakup on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR West. ICOCA acceptance began on 1 November 2003, and barrier-free renovations finished on 3 December 2005, adding an elevator, multipurpose restroom, and electronic departure board. Powered automatic ticket gates entered service on 4 February 2013, station numbering JR-B23 was assigned on 17 March 2018, and a turnback siding for westerly-wind disruptions was added in March 2019. The staffed ticket window closed on 30 June 2025.

Because the second character of the station name "邇" is too complex to render on the dot-matrix in-car displays of older 221- and 223-series trains, those displays substitute the simplified glyph "迩", and the same simplified spelling is used in the official name of the nearby Wani Interchange on the Kosei Road.
