Station history

Kitsunegasaki Station was established as Uehara Station (上原駅, Uehara-eki) on December 9, 1908. In 1926, the predecessor of the Kitsunegasaki Young Land Amusement Center opened, and in 1927 the Uehara Station was renamed Yuenmae Station (遊園前駅, Yuenmae-eki). The amusement part closed during World War II, and in 1944, Yuenmae Station was renamed as Kitsunegasaki Station. However, after the end of the war, the amusement park reopened, and as part of the promotional campaign created by Shizuoka Railway to boost the popularity of the park, the station name was changed from 1968 to Kitsunegasaki Yangu-randomae Station (頃 狐ヶ崎ヤングランド前駅, Yangu-randomae-eki). It reverted to the simpler name of Kitsunegasaki Station in 1985.
