History
Japanese Government Railways (JGR) had opened the Miyazaki Line from Yoshimatsu to Miyakonojō on 8 October 1913. The track was extended east in phases, with Yamanokuchi opening as the new terminus on 15 August 1914. It became a through-station on 21 March 1916 when the track was extended to Aoidake. By 21 September 1917, the track had reached Miyazaki and line was renamed the Miyazaki Main Line. By 1923, the track had reached north to link up with the track of the Nippō Main Line at Shigeoka. On 15 December 1923, Yamanokuchi was designated as part of the Nippō Main Line together with the entire stretch through Miyazaki to Yoshimatsu. 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 2016, the station was used by an average of 194 passengers (boarding only) per day.[6]
