History

Etchū-Miyazaki Station was first set up as the Etchū-Miyazaki signal point on the JNR Hokuriku Main Line between Tomari and Ichiburi on 1 October 1957, then upgraded to a passenger station on 20 November the same year in what is now Asahi, Toyama. The line through the station was AC-electrified in August 1965 and the adjoining sections were double-tracked in 1967. Baggage handling ended and the station became unstaffed on 2 October 1972. With JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987 it joined JR West, and on 14 March 2015 it was transferred to Ainokaze Toyama Railway alongside the rest of the Toyama-prefecture Hokuriku Main Line.

Notes

Etchū-Miyazaki is the eastern edge of the ICOCA usable area: passes work as far east as here, but cannot be used to cross the prefectural border to neighbouring Ichiburi.
