History

Shiroko Station opened on 10 September 1915 as a station on the Ise Railway, and was renamed to its present form on 1 October 1922. Through successive mergers the line became the Sangū Express Electric Railway's Ise Line in 1936, was rebranded the Nagoya Line in 1938, and entered the Kansai Express Railway in 1941 before that company merged with the Nankai Railway on 1 June 1944 to form Kintetsu. A new station building was completed on 20 March 1979, and an elevated overpass-style structure now spans two ground-level island platforms serving four tracks. Almost all Kintetsu Nagoya Line trains stop at Shiroko, the busiest station in Suzuka city.

Notes

When the Formula 1 Japanese Grand Prix runs at Suzuka Circuit, extra Kintetsu trains terminate and originate at Shiroko to handle the spectator traffic.
