History
Ikusabata Station opened on 1 September 1929 along the Ōme Electric Railway in what is now the city of Ōme, Tokyo. The line was nationalised on 1 April 1944 under wartime private-railway acquisition, bringing the station under the Ministry of Transport's Ōme Line. With the breakup of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987, the station passed to East Japan Railway Company. The station has been unstaffed since 1971, and Suica IC card service began on 8 February 2002. The current simple station building was completed on 21 February 2003.

Notes
The platform follows a curve in the track, leaving an unusually wide gap between train and platform edge in places.
