Satsuma Ohkawa Station (薩摩大川駅, Satsuma Ōkawa-eki)[note 1] is a passenger railway station located in the city of Akune, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan.
[3][4] The station is served by the Hisatsu Orange Railway Line that follows the former coastal route of the JR Kyushu Kagoshima Main Line connecting Yatsushiro and Sendai.
Because the tracks are located on a higher level, the second floor of the station building is a waiting room facing the platform.
With the privatization of the Japan National Railways on 1 April 1987, the station was transferred to JR Kyushu.
On 13 March 2004, with the opening of the Kyushu Shinkansen, the station was transferred to the Hisatsu Orange Railway.
