History
Gohyakkoku Station opened on 25 June 1913 in what is now the town of Tateyama, Toyama Prefecture, on a private suburban line now operated as the Toyama Chihō Railway Tateyama Line. It was renamed Tateyama-machi Station on 1 January 1959, then changed back to its original name on 1 July 1970. A new station building incorporating the town library opened in 2012, combining transit and civic functions on one site. The stop sits 3.7 kilometres from the line's starting point at Terada and has two ground-level opposed side platforms connected by a level crossing.
