History

Nishitetsu Shingū Station opened on 1 July 1925 as Shingū Port Station on the Hakata Bay Railway Steamship Company line, built as part of an extension intended to move coal out of the Chikuhō field as well as carry passengers. The line was electrified in 1929 and the operator was absorbed into the Kyushu Electric Tramway, later Nishi-Nippon Railroad, on 19 September 1942. The station was renamed Nishitetsu Shingū on 15 May 1950 and the station building was rebuilt in 1978. Following the 1 April 2007 closure of the Nishitetsu Shingū - Tsuyazaki section, it became the northern terminus of the Kaizuka Line.

Notes

In the early years, the local farmers' co-operative and the railway jointly operated a temporary station between here and Mitoma so that day-trip riders could pick strawberries at the famous Shingū-ichigo farms.
