• Sakai Line: Fujimicho (Tottori) ⇄ Yonago

Bakurōmachi Station opened on 1 July 1952 on the JNR Sakai Line, between Yonago and Gotō stations in present-day Yonago, Tottori Prefecture. It passed to JR West at the JNR breakup on 1 April 1987. A boarding-certificate dispenser was installed in March 1993, and on 16 March 2019 the station joined the ICOCA contactless network via onboard IC readers. The name commemorates the Edo-period bakurō (horse and cattle traders) who once lived in the neighbourhood. Bakurōmachi has a single side platform on the right-hand side facing Sakaiminato, with no station building; passengers access the platform directly and use a vending machine inside the waiting room.

The 0.5 km official distance to neighbouring Fujimichō Station is generous: the rails actually stretch only about 420 metres, the shortest inter-station distance on the JR network.
