Shinnyū Station (新入駅, Shinnyū-eki) is a railway station on the Chikuho Main Line operated by JR Kyushu in Nōgata, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan.[1]

Lines[]

The station is served by the Chikuhō Main Line and is located 22.8 km from the starting point of the line at Wakamatsu.[2]

Station layout[]

The station consists of two side opposed platforms serving two tracks. A station building, of modern design and shaped to resemble a traditional coal-ferrying boat, houses a waiting room and automatic ticket vending machines. Access to the opposite side platform is by means of a level crossing with steps at both ends.[2][3]

History[]

The station was opened by JR Kyushu on 11 March 1989 as an additional station on the existing Chikuhō Main Line track.[4][5]

On 4 March 2017, Shinnyū, along with several other stations on the line, became a remotely managed "Smart Support Station". Under this scheme, although the station is unstaffed, passengers using the automatic ticket vending machines or ticket gates can receive assistance via intercom from staff at a central support centre which is located at Nakama.[6]

Passenger statistics[]

In fiscal 2016, the station was used by an average of 424 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), and it ranked 261st among the busiest stations of JR Kyushu.[7]
