Kawatana Station

The station building is a steel frame structure of modern design and houses a waiting room and staffed ticket window.

Access to the opposite site platform is by means of a level crossing with ramps at both ends.

It staffs the ticket window which is equipped with a POS machine but does not have a Midori no Madoguchi facility.

[6][7] The private Kyushu Railway, in building a line to Nagasaki, had opened a track southwards from Tosu to Saga and Takeo (today Takeo-Onsen) by 1895.

With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Kyushu.
