Ichinoseki Station has local lines and shinkansen running through it on the hour. It also has large JR East coin lockers for storing bags, snacks and plenty of sitting space.
The town is a great place to base yourself if travelling to Hiraizumi, Geibikei, Genbikei or even just looking for a quiet pitstop on the way to Morioka. The Pokemon train stops at Ichinoseki and as a result, the station is not devoid of Pokemon memorabilia.
