History

Toyoake Station opened on 1 April 1923 as Ano Station on the Aichi Electric Railway, when the company extended its Okazaki Line from Arimatsu-ura to Shin-Chiryū. The Aichi Electric Railway merged into Meitetsu on 1 August 1935, bringing the station into the Nagoya Main Line. Residents petitioned for a name change, and on 1 September 1956 the stop was renamed Toyoake. An overhead concourse was constructed between 1995 and 1996, raising the platforms to eight-car length. A third island platform was added in March 1997 (giving three island platforms and six tracks), the adjacent Toyoake Depot opened in April 1999, and the station was destaffed in August 2004 under the centralised station-management system.

Notes

Toyoake has six tracks across three island platforms, more than any other unstaffed conventional railway station in Japan.
