Location
History
Daidōchō Station opened on 31 May 1940 as Daidō-mae, built to ferry workers to the nearby Daidō Steel Works (today Daido Steel) on the Meitetsu Tokoname Line in Minami Ward, Nagoya. The name changed to Daidōchō on 1 June 1945 for wartime security reasons. The station became a Semi-Express stop around 1983, lost that status in October 1990, then regained it in December 2008. The Tokoname-bound track was raised onto a viaduct in December 2004 and the Jingūmae-bound track in July 2006. Bicycle parking opened in February 2007, IC card manaca service began on 11 February 2011, and the station became fully unstaffed on 1 March 2022.
Notes
Despite being one of the busier semi-express stops on the Tokoname Line, Daidōchō is served exclusively by local and Semi-Express trains.
