History
Japanese Government Railways (JGR) had opened the Shibushi Line from Nishi-Miyakonojō to Sueyoshi (now closed) in 1923. By 1925, the line had been extended eastwards to the east coast of Kyushu at Shibushi. The line was then extended northwards in phases. The first major phase of expansion added 28.5 km of track and several stations, reaching Yowara, which opened as the new northern terminus on 15 April 1935. Hyūga-Ōtsuka was one of the intermediate stations which opened on the same day. On 8 May 1963, the route was designated the Nichinan Line on 8 May 1963. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Kyushu.[4][5][6]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2016, the station was used by an average of 24 passengers (boarding only) per day.[7]
