History

Haenosaki Station opened on 20 January 1898 as an intermediate stop on the privately operated Kyushu Railway, on the day the company extended its line from Haiki to Ōmura. The Kyushu Railway was nationalised on 1 July 1907, transferring the station to Japanese Government Railways. On 12 October 1909, the track from Tosu through Haiki to Nagasaki was designated as the Nagasaki Main Line, and on 1 December 1934 it was reassigned to the newly created Ōmura Line when a different alignment took on the Nagasaki Main Line designation. With the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987, control of Haenosaki passed to JR Kyushu, which still operates it as a local-only stop.

Notes

After the Second World War, Japanese soldiers and civilians repatriated through nearby Hario Island were quarantined locally and then sent home from Haenosaki on special trains; a signboard at the station records this episode.
