History[]

The private Kitakyushu Railway had opened a track between Fukuyoshi and Hamasaki on 5 December 1923. By 1 April 1924, the line had been extended east to Maebaru (today Chikuzen-Maebaru). Dainyū was opened on 15 April 1925 as an additional station on the existing track between Fukuyoshi and Maebaru. When the Kitakyushu Railway was nationalized on 1 October 1937, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station and designated the line which served it as the Chikuhi Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Kyushu.[6][7]

Passenger statistics[]

In fiscal 2012, there were a daily average of 140 passengers (boarding only) using the station.[8]
