Satsuma Taki Station

Satsuma Taki Station (薩摩高城駅, Satsuma Taki-eki) is a passenger railway station located in the city of Satsumasendai, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan.

[3][4] The station consists of two side platforms at street level connected by a footbridge.

Because this station is located on a large curve, a large inclination (cant) was installed on the main line (platform 2) side of the track so that express trains could pass at high speed.

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.
