Location
History
Meiden-Akasaka Station opened on 1 April 1926 as Aiden-Akasaka on the Aichi Electric Railway, in present-day Toyokawa City, Aichi Prefecture, and was renamed Meiden-Akasaka on 1 December 1938. Freight handling ended in fiscal 1961, and the station became unstaffed on 1 October 1971. A centralised station management system was introduced on 14 December 2005, accompanied by Tranpass and a new station building; before that date the station was only a platform with no building. IC card travel using manaca began on 11 February 2011, and Tranpass service ended in February 2012. Only local trains stop, so journeys to Toyohashi require at least one change.
Notes
The town of Akasaka is the historical Akasaka-juku, a post town along the Tōkaidō, and views of nearby Mount Miyaji and the surviving Goyu pine grove are visible from the platforms.
