Matsuzaki Station (松崎駅, Matsuzaki-eki) is a passenger railway station located in the town of Yurihama, Tōhaku District, Tottori Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by the West Japan Railway Company (JR West).

Lines

Matsuzaki Station is served by the San'in Main Line, and is located 264.6 kilometers from the terminus of the line at Kyoto.

Station layout

The station consists of one ground-level side platform and one island platform connected by a footbridge to the station building. However, from 2003 the outer track (Track 3) on the island platform was removed, making the station effectively a two side platform configuration. Platform 2 on the former island platform is used only for passing limited express trains, and as a general rule, trains that stop in both directions use Platform 1 on the side of the station building. The station is unattended.

Platforms

2	■  San'in Main Line	for Kurayoshi and Yonago
