Location
History
Suzuka Station opened on 1 September 1973 as a station on Japanese National Railways' Ise Line, in the city of Suzuka, Mie Prefecture. The station building was new-built on 17 January 1974, then made unstaffed on 1 February 1983. On 27 March 1987 the Ise Line was converted to a third-sector railway under Ise Railway, four days before JNR's dissolution. The Travel Centre opened on 15 December 1988 returned the station to staffed status. The single-platform original layout was rebuilt as two elevated opposed side platforms on 7 March 1993, expanding capacity ahead of the Ise Grand Shrine's Shikinen Sengū and the 1994 Matsuri Expo Mie. From 18 March 2006 all scheduled services on the line — including the Nanki limited express and Mie rapid — call here.
Notes
Until two months before this station opened, the JNR Kansai Main Line's Kawano Station had carried the name "Suzuka Station" — Kawano was renamed to free up the name for the new Ise Line stop near the city centre.
