History

edit

Japanese Government Railways(JGR) built the station in the 1930s during the development of an alternative route for the Nagasaki Main Line along the coast of the Ariake Sea which was at first known as the Ariake Line. The track was built fromHizen-YamaguchitoHizen-Ryūō,opening on 9 March 1930, and then toHizen-Hama,opening on 30 November 1930. In the next phase of expansion, the track was extended toTarawhich opened on 16 April 1934 as the new southern terminus. Hizen-Hanaura was opened on the same day as an intermediate station along the new stretch of track. On 1 December 1934, the entire route was completed and through-traffic achieved from Hizen-Yamaguchi through the station to Nagasaki. The track was then redesignated as part of the Nagasaki Main Line. With the privatization ofJapanese National Railways(JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Kyushu.[4][5]
