• Toyohashi Railroad Atsumi Line: Shin-Toyohashi ⇄ Koike

Yagyū-bashi Station opened on 1 May 1925 as Matsuyama Station (松山駅) on the Atsumi Electric Railway. It was renamed Yagyū-bashi Station on 1 June 1925, just before the connecting tramway branch (Yagyū-bashi Shisen) opened on 14 July 1925. The 1 September 1940 merger with Nagoya Railway (Meitetsu) brought the Atsumi line under that company, and the 1 October 1954 corporate split moved it to the newly-spun-off Toyohashi Railroad. The connecting tramway branch was abolished on 7 March 1976, and manaca IC service began on 11 February 2011 via a simplified IC reader on the platform.

Yagyū-bashi was once a junction with the Hanada Station (now Hanada Signal Box) freight branch — the connecting track reached north of the present station — and the Toyohashi Railroad's main office building (a wooden two-storey structure) stood next to the station for many years. The station is staffed only between 07:30 and 09:00; outside those hours it operates unattended.
