Location

History

Aichi-Mito Station first opened on 1 September 1888 as Goyu Station, in what is now the city of Toyokawa, Aichi Prefecture, when the Japanese Government Railways completed the section of line connecting Hamamatsu with Ōbu. From 1 April 1895 the section became the Tōkaidō Main Line. The station building was destroyed in the Toyokawa Air Raid of 7 August 1945 and rebuilt in April 1948. On 1 August 1948 it was renamed Aichi-Mito to avoid confusion with Mito Station in Ibaraki Prefecture. Regularly scheduled freight services ended in 1971, and parcel services in 1984. With the dissolution of JNR on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR Central. TOICA service began on 25 November 2006, and station numbering as CA44 followed in March 2018.

Notes

The 1948 renaming reportedly weighed three candidates — "Mito", "Mikawa-Mito" and "Aichi-Mito". "Mito" on its own risked confusion with Mito Station in Ibaraki, while "Mikawa-Mito" sat among a crowd of nearby stations already prefixed "Mikawa" and came within a single syllable of Mikawa-Miya Station in pronunciation, so the prefecture name was used instead.
