• JR Nippō Line: Hyugashi ⇄ Minami-Hyuga

Zaikōji Station opened on 11 March 1989 as an in-line addition that JR Kyushu inserted on the existing Nippō Main Line track between Hyūgashi and Minami-Hyūga. Oversight passed from the Ōita Branch to the Kagoshima Branch on 1 June 1996 with the launch of the Miyazaki Integrated Railway Business Division, and again to the new Miyazaki Branch on 1 April 2022. The station consists of a single side platform serving one ground-level track. The simple wooden shed structure houses a staffed ticket window and a bench, with a bike shed and limited parking out front. The station is run as a "kan'i itaku" simplified-contract station rather than being directly staffed by JR Kyushu.
