History

Iyo-Tomita Station opened on 11 February 1924 as an intermediate stop when the then Sanyo Line was extended westwards from Iyo-Sakurai to Imabari. At that time the station was operated by Japanese Government Railways, later becoming Japanese National Railways (JNR). With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku.
