History
The private Miyazaki Light Railway (宮崎軽便鉄道) (later renamed the Miyazaki Railway) opened the station on 31 October 1913 as an intermediate station on a line it had laid between Minami-Miyazaki and Uchiumi (now closed). The station closed when the Miyazaki Railway ceased operations on 1 July 1962. Subsequently, Japanese National Railways (JNR) extended its then Shibushi Line north from Kitagō towards Minami-Miyazaki on the same route and reopened Aoshima as an intermediate station on 8 May 1963. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Kyushu.[2][4]
The station became unstaffed from 1 December 1992.[5]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2006, Aoshima Station was used by an average of 58 passengers daily (boarding passengers only),.[5] In fiscal 2016, the daily average for boarding passengers had grown slightly to 62.[6]
