History
Tōshōgū Station opened on 18 November 1988 as a requested station on the Senzan Line, named for the nearby Sendai Tōshōgū shrine. From the Taishō era through the early post-war period a Tōshōgū-mae Station on the Sendai Railway operated nearby but to the southwest of the present site; that line was abolished between Kita-Sendai and Kami-Nakaniida on 14 March 1956. The current station was rebuilt in November 1996, automatic ticket gates entered service on 17 July 2003, and Suica acceptance followed on 26 October 2003. Direct staffing was withdrawn on 15 December 2006 in favour of contract operation. From the 18 March 2023 timetable revision, rapid trains run as locals between Sendai and Ayashi so that all trains now call here.
