Location
History
Shin-Unuma Station opened on 1 October 1926 as the terminus of the old Nagoya Railroad's Inuyama Line. The Kakamigahara Railway built an adjacent Higashi-Unuma Station the next year, and the two were combined under the Shin-Unuma name on 5 February 1931. With the merger of Meigi Railway and Aichi Electric Railway on 1 August 1935 the station passed to the present Nagoya Railroad. The Inuyama Line was raised to 1500 V in 1948 and the Kakamigahara Line followed on 15 March 1964, prompting a platform reconfiguration that unified the two routes. A connecting siding to JR's Unuma Station, used for through coaches to Gero, was removed by 2011.
Notes
When Shin-Nagoya and Shin-Gifu were renamed Meitetsu-Nagoya and Meitetsu-Gifu on the opening of Chubu Centrair International Airport in 2005, Shin-Unuma kept its name; Meitetsu explains that it retained the "Shin" because the station enjoys local affection.
