History The station was opened on 11 December 1889 by the privately run Kyushu Railway after the construction of a track between  and the (now closed) Chitosegawa temporary stop with Tashiro as one of several intermediate stations on the line. When 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 Hitoyoshi Main Line and then on 21 November 1909, part of the Kagoshima Main Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, JR Kyushu took over control of the station. On 18 March 2006, the Tosu Freight Terminal opened just to the north of the station.
