Location
History
Ashihara Station opened on 22 January 1924 as a station on the Atsumi Electric Railway (the present-day Toyohashi Railroad Atsumi Line). After Nagoya Railroad's takeover on 1 September 1940 the station was suspended on 5 June 1944 and remained closed for nearly two decades. It reopened on 15 March 1962 as a Toyohashi Railroad station to serve a new residential development built by the railway. Passing-loop facilities were added on 1 September 1985 when the Shin-Toyohashi – Ōshimizu section began operating on a 15-minute headway, a frequency that is now extended to Mikawa-Tahara.
Notes
Ashihara is an unstaffed station with two side platforms and a passing loop. The station sits between rural rice paddies on the south side and a dense residential area to the north; the long-suspended station was reopened in 1962 for the convenience of residents of a housing estate developed by Toyohashi Railroad. West of the station, between Ueta and the Umedagawa bridge, the line crosses Aichi Prefectural Route 31, the Higashi-Mikawa Ring Road, on an elevated viaduct.
