History

Ajiyoshi Station opened on 1 December 1991 as part of the JR Central Transport Service (TKJ) Jōhoku Line, an unstaffed elevated halt in Naka-shinmachi, Kasugai, Aichi Prefecture. The Jōhoku Line itself was conceived by Japanese National Railways in the 1960s as a Kachigawa–Biwajima freight corridor, with construction starting in 1976 and completed in stages by TKJ — the section through Ajiyoshi opened in 1991 and the line was finished in 1993. It remains the last non-electrified rail line in Aichi, served by KiHa 11 diesel railcars roughly once an hour.

Notes

Ajiyoshi is two stations of the same kanji 700–900 m apart: this JR-Central Transport-Service stop on the Jōhoku Line shares its name with a Meitetsu Komaki Line station to the north, but the two are not transfer-linked.
