Location
History
Naka-Yamaga Station opened on 15 December 1910 as the new southern terminus of Japanese Government Railways' Hōshū Main Line, which had been pushed south to here from Usa after the 1907 nationalisation of the Kyushu Railway. It became a through-station on 22 March 1911 when the line was extended further south to Hiji, and the route was renamed the Nippō Main Line on 15 December 1923. Freight ended in 1961 and parcel handling in 1984; the original wooden building was demolished in December 2006 and replaced by a steel single-storey structure dedicated in September 2007. JR Kyushu took over with the 1 April 1987 privatisation.
Notes
When the second station building opened in 2007 it came with new accessibility features — a ramp at the entrance, refurbished platforms and a small in-station multipurpose toilet.
