Location
History
Kamitoyota Station opened on 29 July 1979 with the Meitetsu Toyota Line, in what is now Uwahara-chō, Toyota, Aichi. The planning name was Uwahara, but because the site sits on the boundary between Uwahara-chō and Ōshimizu-chō the station was instead called Kami-Toyota. It opened unstaffed; a staffed building was completed on 1 March 1996 at a construction cost of 63 million yen, only for the station to revert to unstaffed remote management from Toyotashi on 1 October 2003 when the Tranpass smart-fare system arrived. manaca IC service began on 11 February 2011. The station has two opposed side platforms on a hillside, with the station building above and part of the platform at ground level.
Notes
Kami-Toyota was for many years the least-used station on the Meitetsu Toyota Line, but as Kurozasa's ridership fell it carried more passengers than Kurozasa from fiscal 2012 through fiscal 2017; by fiscal 2020 Kurozasa was about 90 passengers a day busier again, leaving Kami-Toyota the lower of the two.
