• Tohoku Shinkansen: Sendai (Miyagi) ⇄ Fukushima (Fukushima)

Shiroishi-Zaō Station opened on 23 June 1982 as a Tōhoku Shinkansen stop serving the city of Shiroishi, Miyagi. The station was incorporated into JR East at the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. It is an elevated facility with one island platform and one side platform, with the station building beneath the tracks, and includes a staffed Midori no Madoguchi ticket office. Roughly one Yamabiko service per hour stops here on the Tokyo-Shin-Aomori line, with up to two or three stops per hour at peak times. The station is 286.01 kilometres from Tokyo Station.

The conventional-line Shiroishi Station, on the Tōhoku Main Line, is about a 20-minute walk away — the two share a city but not a platform.
