History

Taihei Station was inaugurated on 1 November 1986 as the Taihei provisional boarding halt on the Japanese National Railways Sasshō Line, handling passengers only at an unstaffed platform on the north side of the then single-track line. At privatisation on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR Hokkaido and was upgraded to a full station. The Sasshō Line was branded as the 'Gakuen Toshi Line' in 1991. Doubling between Taihei and Shinoro completed on 16 March 1995, and electrification of the Sōen–Hokkaidō Iryōdaigaku section reached the station on 1 June 2012. Automated ticket gates were installed on 13 July 1999 and IC card Kitaca service began on 25 October 2008.

Notes

Taihei is the southernmost unstaffed station on the Gakuen Toshi (Sasshō) Line.
