History
Ushida Station opened on 1 June 1923 in the city of Chiryū, Aichi, as a stop on the Aichi Electric Railway. The 1 August 1935 merger of Aichi Electric Railway and the Nagoya Electric Railway into the newly-formed Nagoya Railroad (Meitetsu) brought the station under Meitetsu management. Staffing was discontinued before 1 November 1948, but a replacement station building was completed on 18 September 1992 and the station was restaffed for a stretch before being destaffed again in 2004 under the operator's centralised remote-management system. IC card (manaca) acceptance began on 11 February 2011, and the 18 March 2023 timetable revision removed the previous limited-stop arrangement, making Ushida a local-trains-only stop.
