Iinoura Station is served by the JR West San'in Main Line, and is located 528.0 kilometers from the terminus of the line at Kyoto. Only local trains stop at this station.
The station consists of one side platform serving a single bi-directional track. There is a waiting room on the platform. There used to be an old wooden station building, but it has now been dismantled and only the station name signboard and warehouse remain on the site. The station is unattended.
Iinoura Station was opened as a terminal station of the Japan Government Railways San'in Main Line when the line was extended extended from Toda-Kohama Station on 19 June 1927. The line was further extended to Susa Station on 25 March 1928. Freight operations were discontinued on 1 October 1962. With the privatization of the Japan National Railway (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the aegis of the West Japan railway Company (JR West). The station was out of operation from 28 July 2013 to 9 November 2013 due to damage to the line caused by torrential rains.
In fiscal 2020, the station was used by an average of 2 passengers daily.[2]
The station is located on a slightly elevated inland area in the fishing village of Iiura.
Iinoura Station was used as the location for the fictional Kazemachi Station (風町駅) in the 2006 Japanese film Tabi no Okurimono 0:00 Hatsu.[3]
