Station history


Before the construction and opening of Higashiura Station, Owari-Ikuji Station (6.0 km from Obu) and Fujie Station (7.2 km from Obu) existed in North and South of the station.
Higashiura Station was opened on November 11, 1944 after the two stations were closed and deconstructed, as a passenger station on the Japanese Government Railways (JGR), which became the Japanese National Railways (JNR) after World War II. Small parcel services began in 1947, and freight services in 1948. Freight services were discontinued in January 1960; however, the Kinuura Rinkai Railway opened the Hekinan Line on May 25, 1977, which restored freight service to the station. With the privatization and dissolution of the JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control of JR Central. Automatic turnstiles were installed in May 1992, and the TOICA system of magnetic fare cards was implemented in November 2006.
Station numbering was introduced to the Taketoyo Line in March 2018; Higashiura Station was assigned station number CE04.




Passenger statistics


In fiscal 2017, the station was used by an average of 1880 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).
