• Shimabara Railway Line: Kobe (Nagasaki) ⇄ Abazaki

Azuma Station opened on 10 October 1912 on the Shimabara Railway Line in Ushinokuchimyō, Azuma-chō, Unzen, Nagasaki, originally under the name Yamadamura Station. It was renamed Azuma on 5 November 1960, contracted out to operating staff on 1 February 1966, lost freight service on 30 June 1970, gained a new station building in November 1986, took the subtitle "Unzen-Shiyakusho-mae" on 1 October 2019, and was fully de-staffed on 12 March 2022.

Pair a ticket from Aino Station with one to Azuma Station and the Japanese readings spell out "ai-shi-no a-ga-tsuma" — roughly "my beloved wife". The Shimabara Railway sells the matched one-way pair as a "Most-Beloved Certificate" novelty.
