• Toyohashi Railroad Atsumi Line: Ueta ⇄ Ōshimizu

Mukōgaoka Station opened on 16 January 1959 on the Toyohashi Railroad Atsumi Line. It was created at the initiative of Toyohashi Railroad itself, which built a tract of detached houses around the site and added the station so residents would have a rail option to and from central Toyohashi. The station was later destaffed under a commissioned-ticket-sales arrangement, the station building was eventually removed and replaced with a ticket-vending machine, and the machine itself was withdrawn after repeated vending-machine break-ins. Equipment for the manaca IC card was installed in December 2010 and began service on 11 February 2011.

Mukōgaoka is an unstaffed single-platform halt: the original station building was torn down after the station went unstaffed, and the replacement ticket-vending machine was subsequently removed because vending-machine break-ins kept recurring on the unsupervised platform. The neighbourhood is residential, with the station bracketed by two small ponds — Shōjin Pond to the east, with a park alongside, and Ueta Ōike a little further to the east-northeast.
