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.[5][6]
The station became unstaffed on 14 March 2015.[7]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2016, the station was used by an average of 360 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), and it ranked 283rd among the busiest stations of JR Kyushu.[8]
