History

The entire line opened in 1886 as Handa line, (later renamed to Taketoyo Line) becoming a branch when the Obu to Hamamatsu section of the Tokaido Main Line opened two years later.[7] A 1 km freight-only line extended to Taketoyo Minato between 1930 and 1965.[8][9] On September 25, 1953, a typhoon hit the line and washed out the section between Taketoyo station and Higashi-Narawa station. Hiroshi Takahashi, a JNR worker informed the train heading to Taketoyo about the situation beyond Higashi-Narawa station, and the train turned back. Hiroshi was washed out to the sea shortly after, killing him. A statue of him honoring his actions was constructed on Taketoyo station a year later. [7][10][11]

Work started in March 2010 to electrify the line.[12]

On 1 March 2015, the line was electrified, and through services to and from Nagoya commenced.[13] The line introduced Station numbering and line coloring in March 2018.[14] Construction works to elevate the line around Handa Station began in 2020 and is expected to be finished in 2026.[15]
