is a railway station in the city of Fukushima in Fukushima Prefecture, Japan operated by the East Japan Railway Company (JR East). The station is located on JR East's Tà Âhoku Shinkansen and Tà Âhoku Main Line and is the terminus of the company's Yamagata Shinkansen and Yamagata Line. It also serves as the terminus of the third-sector Abukuma Express Line and privately operated Fukushima Kà Âtsà « Iizaka Line.
The station is separated into an east and a west section. After entering the ticket gates, the opposite sections of the station are accessible via a pedestrian tunnel that runs over the tracks. Outside of the ticketed area, pedestrians must use a tunnel to access the opposite section. Cyclists and other vehicles must utilize the bridges to either the north or south of the station.
All lines, except for the Abukuma Express Line and the Iizaka Line, are accessible through the main entrance of the East or West sections of the station. The Abukuma Express Line and the Iizaka Line have a separate entrance on the Northeast side of the station.
The JR portion of the station uses one side platform, one island platform and one bay platform to serve a total of six tracks for regular trains, and two elevated island platforms for Shinkansen operations. The station has a Midori no Madoguchi staffed ticket office. The Abukuma Express Line and the Fukushima Kà Âtsà « Iizaka Line share a single island platform.
Nippon Railway opened Fukushima Station and the railway between Kà Âriyama Station and Shiogama Station (later called Shiogamakà  Station) on December 15, 1887. This railway was later nationalized and named the Tà Âhoku Main Line. The government railways opened the railway, later named the à Âu Main Line, between Fukushima Station and Yonezawa Station on May 15, 1899. The Iizaka Line was opened on April 13, 1924 by . The Tà Âhoku Shinkansen opened on June 23, 1982 and the Abukuma Express Line opened on July 1, 1988.
Through services between the Tà Âhoku Shinkansen and the à Âu Main Line, under the name Yamagata Shinkansen, began on July 1, 1992.
JR East announced in March 2020 that it would build a new approach line for the Yamagata Shinkansen at Fukushima Station to resolve a bottleneck on the Tà Âhoku Shinkansen. Southbound Yamabiko services bound for Tokyo, which couple with Tsubasa services, were required to cross the northbound main line twice to access Platform 14, the only platform connected to the Yamagata Shinkansen. The project will construct a second connecting track with approximately of surface track and of elevated viaduct, branching from the à Âu Main Line, passing beneath the elevated Shinkansen, and connecting directly to the southbound track at Platform 11. The project eliminates at-grade crossings that can delay northbound non-stop Hayabusa services and enables simultaneous arrivals and departures, improving operational flexibility and timetable recovery. Completion is scheduled for 2026.
In fiscal year 2016, the station was used by an average of 16,536 passengers daily (boarding passengers only). In fiscal year 2023, the average number of passengers decreased to 14,292 daily.
