Mikawa-Makihara

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Mikawa-Makihara Station opened on 1 February 1923 on the now-defunct private Hōraiji Railway. On 1 August 1943 the Hōraiji Railway and the Sanshin Railway were nationalised, together with other local lines, forming the Iida Line under Japanese Government Railways. Scheduled freight operations ceased in 1971 and the station was destaffed from 1984. With the dismantling of JNR on 1 April 1987, Mikawa-Makihara came under JR Central. The station retains a single island platform connected to the station building by a level crossing, with TOICA turnstiles in an otherwise unattended building; it sits in an isolated rural pocket of Shinshiro 40.6 kilometres along the line from Toyohashi.
