• Meitetsu Nagoya Main Line: Moto-Kasadera ⇄ Narumi

Moto-Hoshizaki Station opened on 8 May 1917 as a station of the Aichi Electric Railway, in present-day Minami Ward, Nagoya. The name distinguished it from a contemporary Hoshizaki Station on what is now the Meitetsu Tokoname Line, which then bore that designation. The station joined Nagoya Railroad on 1 August 1935 through the merger that created Meitetsu. The Tranpass fare system was introduced on 15 September 2004, accompanying a rebuilt station building and the withdrawal of staff. IC card travel using manaca began on 11 February 2011, and Tranpass service ended in February 2012.

The two side platforms sit on a sharp 360-metre-radius curve, restricting trains to 80 km/h and reducing platform sightlines so much that a monitor for crew use is mounted on platform two.
