Toyama Station opened on 20 March 1899.{{cite book |script-title=ja: 停車場変遷大辞典 国鉄・JR編|trans-title=Station Transition Directory - JNR/JR| publisher = JTB | editor1-last = Ishino| editor1-first = Tetsu| year = 1998 | location = Japan | volume = II| page =139 | isbn = 4-533-02980-9}} With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR West.
