History
Ichiba Station opened on 28 December 1951 as Dentetsu Ichiba Station, on the Kobe Electric Railway (Shintetsu) Ao Line, in Ono-no-Kachi, Ikejiri-chō, Ono, Hyōgo, when the line was extended from Miki Fukuyūbashi (today's Miki Station) to Dentetsu Ono (today's Ono Station). It was renamed Ichiba Station on 1 April 1988. The Ichiba Railway Comprehensive Facility — built on the site of the former freight siding immediately west of the station — was completed on 1 November 1990. PiTaPa IC cards came into use with the 31 March 2007 timetable revision, and the station is now operated by a remote management system over the line's optical-fibre network.
Notes
All current deliveries of Shintetsu rolling stock arrive by road, from Kawasaki Heavy Industries' Hyōgo plant to the Ichiba Railway Comprehensive Facility next to the station — earlier the company received its trains via a JR Kōshu Yusō rail transfer to Sanda Station.
