Toikanbetsu

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

Toikanbetsu Station opened on 10 November 1923 as a general station when the Japanese Government Railways Teshio Line was extended from Ponpira (now Teshio-Nakagawa). The line was renamed Teshio Minami in 1924, became the Teshio Line in 1926, and was absorbed into the Sōya Main Line on 1 April 1930. Operation passed to Japanese National Railways in 1949 and to JR Hokkaido at the 1 April 1987 privatisation. Freight ended in 1982 and the station lost its last resident staff in November 1986, after which the station building dating from 1960 was demolished and replaced with a converted Yo3500 brake-van structure on the old foundations. Since April 2021 Horonobe Town has run the station, which it retained on the grounds that the locality forms a built-up settlement.

From September 1930 to June 1971 a separate colonisation railway, the later Horonobe Town Railway, started from a platform in front of the station and ran inland to Kami-Toikanbetsu.
