Otōbashi Station opened on 16 March 1995 as an infill station on the Tōkaidō Main Line in Nagoya's Nakagawa Ward, built on the site of a former JR Freight terminal. The project was championed by the Japan Racing Association, whose nearby "Winds Nagoya" off-track betting hall produced car-congestion problems that an in-town rail link was meant to solve; JRA funded roughly ¥2.0 billion of the ¥2.34-billion build cost under a petition-station arrangement. TOICA support arrived on 25 November 2006, and a lift and accessible toilet followed on 13 March 2009. Station number CA67 was assigned in March 2018.

Normally only local trains stop at Otōbashi, but on days with a Central GI race — the Japanese Derby, the Arima Kinen and the like — Rapid and New Rapid services make extra stops here at thirty-minute intervals to serve the Winds Nagoya off-track betting hall.
