History
Oiwake Station is on the Yokkaichi Asunarō Railway Utsube Line in Oiwake 3-chōme, Yokkaichi, Mie. It opened on 21 June 1922 as a station on the Mie Railway, became a Mie Kōtsū (Sanco) station on 11 February 1944, a Mie Electric Railway station on 1 February 1964, and a Kintetsu station on 1 April 1965. On 1 April 2015 it was transferred to Yokkaichi Asunarō Railway with Yokkaichi City taking ownership of the station premises, and on 21 August 2021 the ICOCA IC card was introduced. The station has a single side platform on the west side of the line and no passing loop, so both Utsube-bound and Yokkaichi-bound trains use the same platform; it is unstaffed but managed from Asunarō-Yokkaichi Station.
Notes
Beside the station lies the historic Hinaga fork, the ancient parting of the Tōkaidō (toward Kyoto) and the Sangū-dō (toward Ise Grand Shrine).
