Station history
Nodajō Station was established on January 1, 1918 as a station on the now-defunct Toyokawa Railway (豊川鉄道, Toyokawa Tetsudō). It was named after Noda Castle, the site of an important siege in 1573, during the Sengoku period. On August 1, 1943, the Toyokawa Railway were nationalized along with some other local lines to form the Japanese Government Railways (JGR) Iida Line.[1] Scheduled freight operations were discontinued in 1971. The station has been unattended since February 1984. Along with its division and privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control and operation of the Central Japan Railway Company (JR Tōkai)
