Location
History
Gamagōri Station — 310.6 km from Tokyo on the Tōkaidō Main Line and the terminus of the 17.6 km Meitetsu Gamagōri Line — opened on 1 September 1888, when the Japanese Government Railway completed the section between Hamamatsu and Ōbu; that route was named the Tōkaidō Line in 1895. On 24 July 1936 the Mikawa Railway, now part of Meitetsu, connected to the station, and the two operators have shared it ever since. The JNR side was extensively remodelled in the mid-1960s, with a new station building completed in 1968–1969, and the Meitetsu side followed in the early 1970s, its new building and bus terminal finished in 1972. With the dissolution and privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 the JNR portion passed to the Central Japan Railway Company. The Tōkaidō Line tracks were elevated in 2003–2005, a new JR station building was completed in 2006, and TOICA automated turnstiles came into operation on 25 November 2006; station numbering followed in March 2018, when Gamagōri was assigned CA47. Today the JR side has two elevated island platforms serving four tracks with the station building underneath, while Meitetsu has a single elevated island platform whose two tracks both terminate here.
