• JR Nippo Line: Shindembaru ⇄ Shiida

Tsuiki Station opened on 19 June 1933 as an infill station on the Nippō Main Line. In 1941 a dedicated spur was completed to the then-under-construction Imperial Japanese Navy Tsuiki Airfield. The original station building was destroyed by fire on 31 January 1955 after flames spread from a nearby sawmill, with a replacement opening that June. The 1967 electrification between Shindenbaru and Kōzaki included a routing change that pushed the Shindenbaru–Tsuiki stretch up to 290 m inland from the original alignment. Freight handling ended in November 1982 and the air-base spur was lifted in 1983. With the 1 April 1987 privatisation of JNR the station passed to JR Kyushu; SUGOCA acceptance began in March 2009.

When the Shindenbaru-to-Kōzaki section was electrified in 1967, the line had to be moved inland here because the overhead catenary would have obstructed aircraft using the neighbouring Tsuiki Air Base, and aviation law required the diversion.
