History
Tokuda Station opened on 24 April 1898 as part of the simultaneous opening of the Nanao Railway between its Tsubata provisional halt (predecessor of Hon-Tsubata Station) and Yada-shin (later Nanao-Kō). The Nanao Railway was nationalised on 1 July 1907 and absorbed into the Nanao Line in 1909. The current third-generation station building, doubling as a community gallery, was completed on 5 April 1998. It passed to JR West on 1 April 1987, and ICOCA became available on 13 March 2021.
