[edit] Station history
Oyama Station (小山駅) was opened on February 1, 1889 under the Japanese Government Railway (JGR) (the predecessor to the Japan National Railway (JNR)) to serve an area of silk cloth production on the border of Shizuoka and Kanagawa Prefectures. On October 12, 1909 it became a station of the Tōkaidō Main Line and was renamed Suruga Station (駿河駅) on July 1, 1912.
When the opening of the Tanna Tunnel diverted the route of the Tōkaidō Main Line south on December 1, 1934, Suruga Station became a station on the Gotemba Line. It was renamed Suruga-Oyama Station (the present name) on January 1, 1952. Regularly scheduled freight service was discontinued on October 1, 1973 and parcel service on February 1, 1984. Operational control of the station was transferred to JR Central following privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987.

Suruga-Oyama Station consists of a single island platform serving two tracks. The station building is to the south of the tracks and connected to the platform with overpass. The station building has automated ticket machines, TOICA automated turnstiles and a manned "Green Window" service counter.
