• Joetsu Line: Echigo-Horinouchi ⇄ Yairo

Koide Station opened on 1 September 1923 as an intermediate stop on the Jōetsu Line in present-day Uonuma, Niigata. In 1942 it became the western terminus of the newly opened western section of the Tadami Line running east to Ōshirakawa, and the western terminus of the through-line when the Tadami Line was completed in 1971. Following the privatization of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR East. It has one side platform and two island platforms serving five tracks, connected by a footbridge, and houses a staffed Midori no Madoguchi reservation office. In fiscal 2015 it averaged 940 boarding passengers daily.
