History

Nodagou Station opened on 25 March 1923 as a station on the Sendai Line of Japanese Government Railways, which was incorporated into the Kagoshima Main Line on 17 October 1927. The present reinforced-concrete station building was completed in February 1959 to a standard JNR design. CTC made it a sub-station of Izumi from 1970, and contract operation ended in March 1986. JR Kyushu inherited it in 1987 and reinstated staffed contract service following a petition from the former town of Noda. On 13 March 2004, with the opening of the Kyushu Shinkansen, the station was transferred to the third-sector Hisatsu Orange Railway. It is now managed by the local NPO Hokusatsu Club.

Notes

The "郷" ("gō") in the station name once denoted an administrative district of the Satsuma domain; the suffix was retained at opening to avoid duplication with the existing Noda Station on the Osaka Loop Line.
