Matsudai Station (まつだい駅, Matsudai-eki) is a railway station located in the city of Tōkamachi, Niigata, Japan, operated by the third sector Hokuetsu Express. The station name is written in hiragana because when it was opened, there was already a Matsushiro Station (Japanese: 松代, same as the kanji form of Matsudai), which has since closed. Also, it is to appear friendlier to the local community.
Matsudai Station is a station on the Hokuhoku Line, and is located 29.2 kilometers from the starting point of the line at Muikamachi.
Station layout
The station has two ground-level opposed side platforms serving two tracks, connected to the station building by an underground passage. The station is staffed.
