Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Futaba Station opened on 23 August 1898 as Nagatsuka Station on what became the Jōban Line, in the town of Futaba, Fukushima Prefecture. It was renamed Futaba in 1959. The station was absorbed into the East Japan Railway Company (JR East) network with the 1 April 1987 privatization of the Japanese National Railways. After the Tōhoku earthquake and the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster on 11 March 2011 the station was closed and the surrounding area placed in the evacuation zone. Services resumed on 14 March 2020, allowing trains to call here again. The station has a single side platform and is unstaffed; the area around it remains a daytime-only zone.

Before the 2011 closure the station had two platforms and was staffed; the second platform has not been returned to service since reopening.
