Location

History

Miyakoda Station opened on 1 June 1940 when the Japan National Railways Futamata Line was extended from Enshū-Mori Station to Kanasashi, in what is now Hamana-ku, Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Prefecture. The station is 37.7 kilometres from the Kakegawa starting point. Scheduled freight services were discontinued in June 1970. With the transfer of the Futamata Line to third-sector operation on 15 March 1987 it came under the Tenryū Hamanako Railroad. The station once had two opposing side platforms; one was removed to make a head shunt, leaving a single side platform served by a single-story station building. The station is unattended, though the building now houses a Good Design Award–winning café.

Notes

The single-story station building doubles as DLoFre's Miyakoda Station Cafe, which won Japan's Good Design Award in 2015.
