• JR Kyudai Line: Tanushimaru ⇄ Ukiha

Chikugo-Yoshii Station opened on 24 December 1928 as the eastern terminus of the first section of the Kyūdai Main Line, built eastward from Kurume. It lost its terminus status on 11 July 1931 when the line was extended east to Chikugo-Ōishi. Control passed to JR Kyushu at the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. The current station building is modern but built in traditional Japanese style with white plaster namako walls, echoing the traditional houses of the former Yoshii town nearby. Three tracks serve one island and one side platform, with two sidings off track 1, and the ticket counter is staffed by a JR Kyushu subsidiary. The station is in Ukiha, Fukuoka Prefecture.

The station was built in a traditional white-plaster style to echo the preserved namako-walled traditional houses of nearby Yoshii — themselves designated an Important Preservation District for Groups of Traditional Buildings.
