Wakabayashi Station opened on 18 January 1925 as Wakabayashi Station (若林駅) in what is now Wakabayashi 4-chōme, Setagaya City, Tokyo. It was renamed Tamaden Wakabayashi (玉電若林駅) on 16 October 1939 during the line's Tamaden era, then reverted to Wakabayashi on 11 May 1969. Platform raising work was carried out on 11 February 2001. Today it is station SG03 on the Tōkyū Setagaya Line. The stop has two opposed side platforms with staff on the up platform during the weekday morning rush, when fares are collected.

Immediately on the Sangen-jaya side of Wakabayashi Station, the line's only crossing of Loop Route 7 (Kannana-dōri) is the "Wakabayashi Crossing," which has no traditional crossing gates: traffic is governed by signals, and trains physically wait short of the crossing for the road signal to turn red before proceeding. The legacy gated crossing was replaced with the current signal-controlled form in 1966 as traffic on Kannana outgrew the original gates, and the section was formally redesignated from a railway crossing to a shared-track section in fiscal 2012.
