Station structure
Inano station is an above-ground station with platforms on both sides. It is classified as a stop due to the lack of a railroad switch or railway signals.
The station building and ticket gates are located at the south end of the station (nearer Tsukaguchi) for each platform.[3] Since there is no overpass connecting the platforms inside the ticket gate, it is necessary to use the railroad crossing outside the ticket gates, which are adjacent to the station building.
Internal railroad crossings for passengers did previously exist, but were removed in accord with Hankyu Corporation policy. Therefore, if passengers enter the station by mistake, they now must tell the station staff they wish to exit. As there are no station staff at the ticket gate of the Tsukaguchi-bound platform, passengers there are obliged to use the intercom near the ticket gate to summon station staff.
Restrooms are located near the ticket gate on the Itami-bound platform, and the Tsukaguchi-bound platform has a waiting room and vending machine for soft drinks.
In 2007, construction near the ticket gates was carried out on both platforms, and slopes were renovated along with toilets. The restroom was relocated and now stands where there had previously been a temporary entrance for passengers at the ticket gate for Itami that had fallen into disuse.
