History
Tai Hing Forest was originally called "Tai Hing", servicing the costal parts of the then-small town of Tai Hing. Hakone was by far more important until the Tai Hing Upgrade Project was implemented, which brought some high-density residential blocks to the area.
Tai Hing Forest initially had one platform. The second platform was added to transfer to the Tai Hing tram. The Single-tracked Mihara Line only required one platform for services that were not all that common.
