• Kintetsu Shima Line: Shima-akasaki ⇄ Kamo (Mie)

Funatsu Station (Toba) opened on 23 July 1929 with the Shima Electric Railway's Toba - Shinjukō (since abolished) section. Through wartime consolidation on 11 February 1944 the Shima Electric Railway and six other companies were merged into Mie Kōtsū, making this a Mie Kōtsū Shima Line station. Mie Kōtsū's rail business was split off into Mie Electric Railway on 1 February 1964, which Kintetsu absorbed on 1 April 1965. The station was closed for upgrading on 10 December 1969 with replacement buses, reopened in standard gauge on 1 March 1970, and the section between Funatsu and Kamo was double-tracked on 22 December 1992. PiTaPa service began on 1 August 2015.

Funatsu has two relative platforms in a single-track-to-Toba, double-track-to-Kashikojima passing-loop layout, no station building, and is entered directly from a ramp. Before IC card service began, one-man local trains used door-cutting at this stop so only one door opened for boarding; with IC cards now installed, all doors open.
