Location
History
Futagawa Station opened on 7 April 1896 on the Japanese Government Railway's Tōkaidō Line, eight years after the Hamamatsu–Ōbu segment passed through the area without a station. Local petitions in 1889 and 1893 produced this halt, sited about a kilometre west of the centre of the former Edo-period Futagawa-juku post town. The original wooden building remained in service for over a century, making it the oldest on the Tōkaidō Main Line until ageing forced its replacement: an overhead station building opened on 3 February 2002 and a north–south free-passage corridor opened that April. With the JNR breakup on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR Central, TOICA fare-card service began on 25 November 2006, and station numbering CA41 was introduced in March 2018.
Notes
Until its closure in 2000, the original 1896 wooden station building was the oldest in service on the Tōkaidō Main Line.
