History

Shindō Station was opened on July 15, 1921, as a station on the Imperial Government Railways (IGR), which became Japan National Railways (JNR) after World War II. Freight operations were discontinued from August 1, 1970. With the privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control of JR-West. In July 2002, the station was extensively remodeled, with the original side platform and island platform replaced by a single island platform and with the station building rebuilt.

Passenger statistics

In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 195 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).
