• Nishi-Kyushu Line: Naruishi ⇄ Sato

Kusuku Station opened on 21 March 1930 as a stop on the Imari Line, run by Japan's Railway Ministry, in what is now Yamashiro-chō Kusuku, Imari, Saga Prefecture. Freight handling was abolished on 1 October 1962 and parcel handling on 1 October 1970, when the station became unstaffed. With the dissolution of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR Kyushu as part of the Matsuura Line, and on 1 April 1988 the route was transferred to the third-sector Matsuura Railway and renamed the Nishi-Kyūshū Line. A second platform was added in 1992 to make Kusuku a passing loop. The station is 18.6 km from Arita.

Kusuku spent six decades as a single-track halt before Matsuura Railway added a second platform and turned it into a passing loop in 1992, four years after taking the line over from JR Kyushu.
