history

The Toyokawa Tetsudō railway company had opened the line between Toyohashi and Toyokawa in 1897 . Three years later, on September 23, 1900, it extended it to this point. As the company ran into financial difficulties, the planned expansion was not carried out and Ōmi was the end of the line for more than two decades. From March 15, 1903, the station was named Nagahino ( 長 篠 ). Since it was a kind of gateway to several places in the region, several ryokans and restaurants were built around it ; Transport companies also settled there and took over the fine distribution of people and goods.

Another railway company, the Hōraiji Tetsudō , finally continued the line and opened on February 1, 1923 the section to Mikawa-Kawai . Since the Hōraiji Tetsudō was a subsidiary of the Toyokawa Tetsudō, all trains ran continuously and the former terminus lost significantly in importance. On August 1, 1943, the railway systems of both companies were nationalized and from then on formed part of the Iida line; on the same day the station got its original name back. The Ministry of Railways was responsible for the operation , from 1949 the Japanese State Railways .

In 1969, the state railway built today's station building. For cost reasons it stopped handling goods on January 16, 1984, and checked baggage on February 1, 1984. The station has not been staffed since 1985. As part of the privatization of the state railway, it passed into the possession of the new company JR Central on April 1, 1987 .
