• JR Nippo Line: Minami-Yukuhashi ⇄ Tsuiki

Shindembaru Station opened on 25 September 1897 as an intermediate station on the private Hōshū Railway between Yukuhashi and Yanagigaura. The Hōshū Railway was absorbed by the Kyushu Railway in September 1901, and the route was nationalised on 1 July 1907. Japanese Government Railways designated the track as the Hōshū Main Line in October 1909 before renaming it the Nippō Main Line in December 1923. Freight handling ended in October 1961 and the present concrete station building dates from 1980. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR Kyushu; SUGOCA acceptance began in March 2009, and the staffed ticket counter closed on 11 March 2022.

Despite sharing the kanji 新田原 with the famous Air Self-Defense Force base in Miyazaki, this station's reading is "Shindembaru" — the air base is read "Nyūtabaru" and is nowhere near here.
