Ichiburi Station (市振駅 Ichiburi-eki?) is a railway station in Itoigawa, Niigata, Japan, operated by the third-sector railway operating companies Ainokaze Toyama Railway and Echigo Tokimeki Railway (ETR).
Ichiburi Station forms the boundary station for the Ainokaze Toyama Railway Line to the west and Echigo Tokimeki Railway Nihonkai Hisui Line to the east. Although it is the nominal terminal station for the Echigo Tokimeki Railway, many services continue west to terminate at Tomari It is 100.1 kilometers from the starting point of the Ainokaze Toyama Railway Line at Kurikara Station and is 294.5 kilometers from Maibara Station.
The station consists of one island platform connected to the station building by a level crossing. The station is unattended.
Ichiburi Station opened on 15 October 1912. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR West.
From 14 March 2015, with the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen extension from Nagano to Kanazawa, local passenger operations over sections of the former Hokuriku Main Line running roughly parallel to the new shinkansen line were reassigned to different third-sector railway operating companies. From this date, Ichiburi Station became a boundary station between the Ainokaze Toyama Railway Line of Toyama Prefecture to the west and the Echigo Tokimeki Railway Nihonkai Hisui Line of Niigata Prefecture to the east.
