• Tōkyū Tamagawa Line: Tamagawa (Tokyo) ⇄ Unoki

Numabe Station opened on 11 March 1923 as Maruko Station on the Meguro-Kamata Electric Railway. To distinguish it from a homonymous Maruko Station on the Hokuriku Main Line, it was renamed Musashi-Maruko on 1 April 1924, then renamed again to Numabe on 1 January 1926. The original Maruko name reflected the historical Maruko-shō manor; the present name comes from the former Shimo-Numabe locality of Ebara-gun Chōfu Village. On 6 August 2000 the Mekama Line was split into the Tōkyū Tamagawa Line and Tōkyū Meguro Line, with Numabe becoming part of the former. Two ground-level side platforms each have their own ticket gate.

Numabe sits at the foot of Sakurazaka, a cherry-tree slope made famous by Masaharu Fukuyama's hit song of the same name.
