• Tōkaidō Main Line: Kanayama (Aichi)

Otōbashi Station opened on 16 March 1995 as an infill station on the Tōkaidō Main Line in Nagoya's Nakagawa Ward, built on the site of a former JR Freight terminal. The project was championed by the Japan Racing Association, whose nearby "Winds Nagoya" off-track betting hall produced car-congestion problems that an in-town rail link was meant to solve; JRA funded roughly ¥2.0 billion of the ¥2.34-billion build cost under a petition-station arrangement. TOICA support arrived on 25 November 2006, and a lift and accessible toilet followed on 13 March 2009. Station number CA67 was assigned in March 2018.

Although most stopping services pass through, on Central GI race days (Japanese Derby, Arima Kinen and similar) special rapids stop here at thirty-minute intervals to serve the Winds Nagoya betting hall.
