History

The line was initially constructed by Ministry of Railways as Kuroishi Light railway line in August 1912. The line was renamed to Kuroishi Line on 1922. The line was listed in the 1st phase of Specified local lines due to low passengers from people using the Konan Line which also headed to Kuroishi, and it was transferred to Konan Railway on 1984. However, the line closed in 1998 due to the lack of users.
