• Ise Line: Kawage ⇄ Tsu

Higashi-Ishinden Station opened on 1 September 1973 as an unattended passenger-only stop on the Japanese National Railways Ise Line. Its working name during construction had been "Senshū-ji Station" after the nearby Senshū-ji temple, but JNR's policy of not assigning religious-institution names to its stations led to the present locality-based name. The Ise Line was privatised to the third-sector Ise Railway on 27 March 1987, four days before the dissolution of JNR on 1 April 1987, and the station has remained under Ise Railway management since. The station has a single side platform on an elevated alignment, with bi-directional service on a single track, and is unattended.

The station was the location for the TV Asahi drama Tetsudō Sōsakan: Ise Tetsudō Hikikaesenai Tansen Ressha kara no Dasshutsu Trick ("Railway Investigator: Escape Trick from a No-Going-Back Single-Track Train"), starring Yasuko Sawaguchi, which aired on 30 April 2011. It is one of the stations on the south side of the Shitomo River: Takadahonzan Station on the Kintetsu Nagoya Line lies to the east, in an area of mixed housing and farmland, while Ishinden Station on the JR Kisei Main Line lies to the west, in a densely built-up area with soy-sauce breweries and a hospital.
