Location
History
Aoidake Station opened on 21 March 1916 as the new eastern terminus of the Japanese Government Railways Miyazaki Line, which had been extended in stages from Yoshimatsu. It became a through-station on 25 October 1916 when track from the Miyazaki side reached Kiyotake. The line was renamed the Miyazaki Main Line in 1917 and absorbed into the Nippō Main Line on 15 December 1923. Freight handling was discontinued on 20 September 1962 and baggage handling on 1 October 1979, when the station became unstaffed under the new CTC system. It passed to JR Kyushu at privatisation on 1 April 1987.
Notes
In addition to local passenger trains, the station now has scheduled non-stops: from 15 March 2025 early-morning and late-evening local services on the Nippō Main Line skip Aoidake entirely.
