History edit

Izumoshi Station was opened as Izumo Imaichi Station (出雲今市駅) on 10 October 1910 when the San'in Main Line was extended from Shōbara Station. The Taisha Line began operations on 1 June 1912. The San'in Main Line was further expended to Oda on 21 November 1913. The station was renamed to its present name on 1 April 1957. 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 Taisha Line was discontinued in 1990.

In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 2,518 passengers daily.[2]
