Tochiya

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Tochiya Station opened on 5 November 1922 as a station of the Kurobe Railway, when the 10.1-km Mikkaichi–Shimotate section was inaugurated; the line became the Kurobe Line of Toyama Chihō Railway in the 1943 wartime consolidation of Toyama-prefecture private railways. The station is in the Unazuki-machi Tochiya district of Kurobe, a city in the eastern part of Toyama Prefecture in the lower Kurobe River basin, facing the Sea of Japan. The current Kurobe was formed on 31 March 2006 by the merger of the former Kurobe City (itself created in 1954) with the town of Unazuki, the gateway to the Kurobe Gorge upstream.

In Kurobe, the Kurobegawa alluvial fan spring group within the city is one of Japan's "100 selected exquisite waters" (meisui hyakusen) and the YKK fastener and aluminium-products works in the old Kurobe area is the city's industrial mainstay, alongside the Kurobe Gorge Railway and Unazuki Onsen tourism in the old Unazuki area.
