On September 1, 1888, the section of the Tōkaidō Main Line connecting Hamamatsu Station with Ōbu Station was completed, and a rail siding was established at the site of present-day Washizu Station. As the area was completely rural at the time, stops were discontinued from August 1892; however, due to the strong petition by the surrounding villages, a station was established on January 10, 1915, for both passenger service and freight. Freight service was discontinued on April 26, 1971.
Station numbering was introduced to the section of the Tōkaidō Line operated JR Central in March 2018; Washizu Station was assigned station number CA39. [1] [2]
In fiscal 2017, the station was used by an average of 3480 passengers daily. [3]
