History

Shin-Ōmura opened on 23 September 2022, with the revenue debut of the Nishi Kyushu Shinkansen. It is a new station, built specifically for the shinkansen at the request of Ōmura, and also serves the conventional Ōmura Line via a separately constructed petitioned platform that opened the same day alongside Ōmura Train Depot Station. Civil works on the elevated shinkansen viaduct began on 26 June 2015; building work on the station structure followed on 8 October 2019, and the name "Shin-Ōmura Station" was confirmed on 26 November 2020. The shinkansen has two opposed elevated side platforms with safety gates and no passing tracks; the Ōmura Line uses a single ground-level side platform. The station has a staffed Midori-no-Madoguchi.

Notes

With Shin-Ōmura's opening, the southwestern endpoint of Japan's longest one-way (operational-kilometre) ticket route shifted here from Kōhoku Station — the new route is 18.5 km longer than the old one.
