• Ainokaze Toyama Railway Line: Ikuji ⇄ Uozu

Kurobe Station opened on 16 April 1910 as Mikkaichi Station when the Hokuriku Main Line was extended from Uozu to Tomari, and was renamed Kurobe on 10 April 1956. The section through the station was electrified at AC in 1965, the present second-generation station building opened in August 1967, and a Midori-no-Madoguchi reserved-ticket window was installed in March 1986. JR West and JR Freight took over the station at privatisation on 1 April 1987. When the Hokuriku Shinkansen reached Kanazawa on 14 March 2015, JR West's local operations through Kurobe were transferred to the third-sector Ainokaze Toyama Railway; the JR Freight station was formally closed on 1 April 2016.

To enliven the area around the station, the zipper maker YKK opened the K-TOWN complex in 2017, pairing an employee dormitory with an event hall, shops and restaurants intended for general public use.
