Location
History
Yasuoka opened on 22 April 1914 as a station on the Chōshū Railway, a privately operated line in western Yamaguchi Prefecture serving what is now the city of Shimonoseki. The line was nationalised in 1925 and was renamed the San'in Main Line in 1933; Yasuoka stands 668.2 kilometres from the line's starting point at Kyoto. The 1 April 1987 break-up of Japanese National Railways placed the station under JR West. The layout is two ground-level opposed side platforms linked to the station building by a footbridge, with no permanent staff on site.
