Station History
Enshū-Byōin Station was established on June 1, 1958 as Entetsu Hamamatsu Station (遠鉄浜松駅, Entetsu Hamamatsu-eki), the original terminal station for the Enshū Railway Line. The current Shin-Hamamatsu Station is located on what was formerly the rail yard. The station was renamed as Enshū-Byōin-mae Station (遠州病院前駅, Enshū-Byōin-mae-eki) in1985 and renamed to its present name in 2007. In April 2007, the Enshū Hospital, after which the station was named, was relocated, and the station name is now under reconsideration.
