History
First proposed in 1926, construction of the line was started by the Mikawa Railway in 1932, but abandoned in 1937 due to management issues.[citation needed] Construction restarted in 1973 following an agreement for through-running with the Nagoya Subway Tsurumai Line, and the line opened in 1979, dual-tracked and electrified at 1,500 V DC.
