• JR Hitahikosan Line: Tagawa-Gotoji ⇄ Buzen-Kawasaki

Ikejiri Station opened on 10 July 1899 on the Hōshū Railway in what is now Kawasaki, Fukuoka Prefecture, when the company extended its line between Gotōji (now Tagawa-Gotōji) and Kawasaki (now Buzen-Kawasaki). The Hōshū Railway was acquired by the Kyushu Railway on 3 September 1901 and that company was in turn nationalised on 1 July 1907. Parcels handling and station staffing ended on 1 April 1972 and freight handling ceased on 15 November 1982. JR Kyushu inherited the station at the 1 April 1987 privatisation of JNR, and on 14 July 2018 it was added to the list of stops served by rapid-service trains on the Hitahikosan Line.

Although now an unstaffed mid-route station, Ikejiri's grounds are unusually wide for an intermediate stop — a relic of the several sidings that once branched off to coal mines in the surrounding area.
