History

Iga Station opened on 1 January 1904 in Kasuya, Fukuoka, as Chōjabaru Station on the private Hakata Bay Railway between Saitozaki and Sue. It was renamed Iga on 1 October 1908. On 19 September 1942 the operator, by then the Hakata Bay Railway and Steamship Company, merged into the Kyushu Electric Tramway, which three days later became the Nishi-Nippon Railroad. The track and its extensions were nationalised on 1 May 1944, when the line was designated the Kashii Line. JR Kyushu inherited the station at the 1 April 1987 privatisation of JNR. When a new station opened next on the line in 1988, the old name Chōjabaru was transferred to it. Iga became a remotely managed Smart Support Station on 14 March 2015.

Notes

Iga carried the name Chōjabaru from 1904 to 1908, and when a brand-new station one stop away opened in 1988 that retired name was given to the newcomer — so today's Chōjabaru Station, opened in the Shōwa era, carries a Meiji-era name that originally belonged to Iga.
