Miyazaki Station has two elevatedisland platformsand four tracks. Although the central station of the prefectural capital, it was the only station in JR Kyushu that did not have automatic ticket gates, but automatic ticket gates were introduced on November 7, 2015 in conjunction with the introduction ofSUGOCAin the Miyazaki area. Previously, there were separate ticket gates at the bottom of the stairs from each platform, but as of March 19, 2020, they have been consolidated into one location. There is no detention track on the premises, and when a train is detained, it is transferred to the detention track at Miyazaki-Jingu Station or entered the Miyazaki Vehicle Center (sometimes it is operated commercially to Minami-Miyazaki Station).

History

[edit]

On 15 December 1913, the Miyazaki Prefectural Railway(Cung kỳ huyện 営 thiết đạo)opened a line from Miyazaki northwards toHirose(now closed). The Miyazaki Prefectural Railway was nationalized on 21 September 1917 andJapanese Government Railways(JGR) assumed control of the station, designating it as part of the Tsuma Light Rail Line(Thê khinh tiện tuyến).By 1920, JGR had extended the track from Hirose northwards toTakanabe.Thus on 11 September 1920, JGR designated the stretch of track from Takanabe, through this station to Miyazaki as part of the Miyazaki Main Line, which at that time already comprised the track from Miyazaki southwards toMiyakonojō.Expanding north of Takanabe in phases, the track eventually reachedKokuraand the entire stretch from Kokura to Miyakonojō was redesignated as the Nippō Main Line on 15 December 1923. The original station was destroyed on 15 August 1945 during the Miyazaki Air Raid of World War II. With the privatization ofJapanese National Railways(JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Kyushu.[3][4][5]

Passenger statistics

[edit]

In fiscal 2016, the station was used by an average of 4,773 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), and it ranked 44th among the busiest stations of JR Kyushu.[6]
