History
Ōoka Station began life as an unnamed wartime siding built to move workers to the munitions plants concentrated in Numazu's Ōoka district. With the Pacific War over, it was reopened as a public passenger station on 15 January 1946, on what is now JR Central's Gotemba Line. Parcel handling ended on 1 February 1971, and at the JNR breakup on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR Central. The Gotemba Line received station numbering in March 2018, when Ōoka was assigned CB17. The single side platform is staffed but goes unmanned at night.
Notes
The station was not built as part of a planned passenger service: it began during the Pacific War as an unnamed provisional halt opened to carry workers to the munitions plants of Numazu's Ōoka district, and only became a regular passenger station on 15 January 1946.
