Station history
[edit]Tōei Station was established on December 21, 1933 as Miwamura Station (三輪村駅, Sanshin-Miwa-eki), a passenger station on the now defunct Sanshin Railway. The station name was changed the following year to Sanshin-Miwa Station (三信三輪駅, Miwamura-eki). On August 1, 1943, the Sanshin Railway was nationalized along with several other local lines to form the Iida Line, and the station name was changed again to Mikawa-Nagaoka Station (三河長野駅, Mikawa-Nagaoka-eki). The station assumed its present name on December 20, 1956. Scheduled freight operations were discontinued from February 1, 1984.[1] Along with its division and privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control and operation of the Central Japan Railway Company.
