History

Togura Station opened on 11 February 1912 as a petition station on the Japanese Government Railway's Shin'etsu Line, after local lobbying secured a stop the original alignment had omitted. Freight handling ended on 1 July 1973, the present station building was rebuilt in December of that year, and parcel handling ceased in March 1985. The station passed to JR East at the 1987 privatisation and was transferred to the third-sector Shinano Railway on 1 October 1997 when the Hokuriku Shinkansen opened. It became a simple-commission station on 1 April 2023, and Suica service began on 14 March 2026 alongside the closure of the ticket window.

Notes

A soba stand operates on platform 1, also accessible from the station's waiting room, and Togura is a stop for the Karuizawa Resort and Rokumon excursion trains.
