Location

History

Hyūga Station opened on 12 October 1899 as a Sōbu Railway station for both passengers and freight, in what is now the city of Sanmu, Chiba Prefecture. The Sōbu Railway was nationalised on 1 September 1907 and absorbed into the Japanese Government Railway, later becoming part of Japanese National Railways. Scheduled freight handling was suspended from 1 October 1962, and a new station building was completed in July 1984. The station was unstaffed from 15 March 1974 until staffing resumed under contract from 1 July 1997. With the 1 April 1987 privatisation of JNR, the station came under JR East, which continues to operate it as a stop on the Sōbu Main Line 71.7 kilometres from Tokyo.

Notes

The station name comes from the former Hyūga village of Musa District, established in 1889; it has no direct connection to Hyūga Province on Kyushu.
