Location
History
Takahama-minato Station opened on 5 February 1914 on the privately built Mikawa Railway's first segment from Ōhama-kō to Kariya-shin; freight from local tile, ceramic-pipe, soy-sauce and miso producers, plus coal landed at Takahama port, made it a busy goods stop. The Mikawa Railway joined the Meitetsu group on 1 June 1941, freight handling was withdrawn on 25 May 1977, and the loop was singled in October 1983 once timetables had settled into a clock-face pattern. The station was made unstaffed in August 2005, gained Tranpass gates a month later, and the present building opened on 10 March 2016 — a tile-less design had been planned at first, and its tiled roof was possible only because the extra cost was met locally.
Notes
The replacement station building was first planned without a tiled roof; local funding covered the additional cost, so the building that opened on 10 March 2016 was given a tiled roof after all. Roof tiles were among the local products the station once shipped.
