History
The private Daito Railway (大湯鉄道) had opened a track between Ōita and Onoya in 1915. The Daito Railway was nationalized on 1 December 1922, after which Japanese Government Railways (JGR) undertook phased westward expansion of the track which, at the time, it had designated as the Daito Line. By 1923, the track had reached Yunohira and then, on 29 July 1925, Yufuin (then known as Kita-Yufuin) was established as the new western terminus. Minami-Yufu was opened on the same day as an intermediate station along the new track. On 15 November 1934, when the Daito Line had linked up with the Kyudai Main Line further west, JGR designated the station as part of the Kyudai Main Line. 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]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2015, there were a total of 18,548 boarding passengers, giving a daily average of 51 passengers.[6]
