History


Ieki Station was opened on September 11, 1931 as a station on the Japanese Government Railways (JGR) (which became the Japan National Railways (JNR) after World War II). Until December 5, 1935, the station was the terminus of the line.
Along with the division and privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control and operation of the Central Japan Railway Company.
There were two incidents of train runaway involving this station on August 20, 2006, and April 19, 2009. In both cases an empty railcar left Ieki Station when the driver failed to park the railcar properly, and was found about eight kilometers away (between Isegi and Ise-Ōi stations). There were no casualties from either of the incidents.
Between October 8, 2009 and March 26, 2016, the section between Ieki and Ise-Okitsu was closed due to the damages incurred from Typhoon Melor. During this time, a bus service ran between the stations.




Passenger statistics


In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 232 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).
