History
The privately run Chikuho Kogyo Railway had opened a track from Wakamatsu to Nōgata on 30 August 1891 and after several phases of expansion, the track had reached Iizuka by 1893. On 1 October 1897, the Chikuho Kogyo Railway, now renamed the Chikuho Railway, merged with the Kyushu Railway which undertook further expansion so that the track had reached Nagao (now Keisen by 1901. On 15 June 1902, Shin-Iizuka was opened with the name Yoshiwa as an additional station on the track for freight only. After the Kyushu Railway was nationalized on 1 July 1907, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station. On 12 October 1909, the station became part of the Chikuho Main Line. On 10 May 1920, JGR upgraded Yoshiwa to a general station for both freight and passenger traffic. On 1 February 1935, the name of the station was changed to Shin-Iizuka. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Kyushu.[1][2]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2016, the station was used by an average of 4,434 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), and it ranked 47th among the busiest stations of JR Kyushu.[3]
