Location
History
Tagawa-Ita Station opened on 15 August 1895 as Ita Station on the Hōshū Railway when the line from Yukuhashi reached the site, and grew into a junction as Hōshū track opened to Gotōji in 1896 and to Nōgata in 1899. The Kyushu Railway absorbed Hōshū in 1901 and the line was nationalised in 1907. The Hita Line connected in October 1957, and in April 1960 the Tagawa section to Soeda was redesignated part of the Hitahikosan Line. The station was renamed Tagawa-Ita in November 1982 and passed to JR Kyushu at the April 1987 privatisation. The Tagawa and Ita lines transferred to Heisei Chikuhō Railway in October 1989, and the present three-storey building opened in March 1990.
Notes
Heisei Chikuhō Railway sold naming rights to discount-store chain MrMax on 1 April 2009, so the Heisei Chikuhō portion of the station is officially branded "MrMax Tagawa-Ita Station".
