Susono Station (すそのえき Susono-eki?) is a railway station on the Gotemba Line in the southern part of Susono, Shizuoka, Japan, operated by Central Japan Railway Company (JR Central).
Susono Station is served by the Gotemba Line.
Susono Station has a single island platform. The station building has automated ticket machines, TOICA automated turnstiles and a "Midori no Madoguchi" ticket office, and is manned only during daytime hours. It is located to the west of tracks and is connected to the platform with an overpass.
The station first opened as Sano Station (佐野駅?) under the Japanese Government Railways (JGR), (the predecessor to the post-war Japanese National Railways) on February 1, 1889. It was renamed Susono Station on July 15, 1915. After the opening of the Tanna Tunnel on December 1, 1934, it became a station of the Gotemba Line. Regularly scheduled freight services were discontinued on March 10, 1974 and baggage-handling services from February 1, 1984. Along with its division and privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control and operation of JR Central.
