Magarikane Station (勾金駅, Magarikane-eki) is a passenger railway station located in the town of Kawara, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by the third-sector railway operator Heisei Chikuhō Railway. On 1 April 2009, nearby Tagara High School acquired naming rights to the station. Therefore, the station is alternatively known as Tagawa High School Magarikane Station (田川高校前 勾金駅, Tagawakōkō-Magarikane-eki).
