History

Yusu opened on 13 March 1988 on the former junction site of the long-closed Katsuta Line (abandoned on 1 April 1985) in Yusu, Kasuya Town, on JR Kyushu's Sasaguri Line (the Fukuhoku-Yutaka Line). It started with a single-track island platform, was expanded to two tracks in March 1991, gained automatic ticket gates on 26 October 2000 and SUGOCA contactless ticketing on 1 March 2009. The 14 March 2015 timetable change made it a stop for every rapid service; from the first train on 15 October 2016 a newly built platform 1 was opened, turning the station into a two-side-platform halt. The Midori-no-Madoguchi staffed counter closed on 11 March 2022, and JR Kyushu brought the station back under its own direct operation on 1 October 2023.

Notes

Yusu Station was built on the site of the old junction with the long-defunct Katsuta Line, whose disused right-of-way still survives next to the platforms.
