The station is served by the Senmō Main Line, and lies 79.2 km from the starting point of the line at Higashi-Kushiro . Biruwa Station has one side platform serving a single bi-directional track. It formerly had a secondary main line, and a freight platform. The current station building is a re-purposed caboose. It is an unmanned station managed by Mashu Station. The station opened on 20 April 1930 on the Japanese Government Railways Senmō Main Line. Following the privatization of the Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Hokkaido. In June 2023, this station was selected to be among 42 stations on the JR Hokkaido network to be slated for abolition owing to low ridership.
