History

Kitsunegasaki Station was established on December 9, 1908 as Uehara Station on the line of the present-day Shizuoka Railway. In 1927 it was renamed Yuenmae Station, reflecting the opening of the predecessor of the Kitsunegasaki Young Land Amusement Center, but was renamed Kitsunegasaki Station in 1944 after the wartime closure of the park. After the war, as Shizutetsu promoted the reopened park, the station was renamed Kitsunegasaki Yangu-randomae Station in 1968 and finally simplified back to Kitsunegasaki Station in 1985. Today the station has a single island platform with automated turnstiles supporting LuLuCa, PiTaPa, and ICOCA cards.
