History

Kita Shinkawa Station opened on 5 February 1914 as a station on the privately owned Mikawa Railway. The Mikawa Railway merged into Meitetsu on 1 June 1941, and the station building was rebuilt in June 1947. Freight operations ended on 25 May 1977, and a new Kita Shinkawa substation opened on 16 March 1984. With the introduction of Meitetsu's centralised station-management system on 25 August 2005 the station became unattended, the Tranpass magnetic-fare system launched on 14 September 2005, manaca IC support began on 11 February 2011, and Tranpass service ended on 29 February 2012.

Notes

Kita Shinkawa is a ground-level station with a single island platform serving two tracks, and trains here run on the right-hand track rather than the left. It has been unstaffed since Meitetsu's centralised station-management system was introduced, with Chiryū Station acting as its managing station.
