History
The privately run Kyushu Railway had opened a stretch of track between Template:STN and the (now closed) Chitosegawa temporary stop on 11 December 1889. After several phases of expansion northwards and southwards, by February 1891, the line stretched from Template:STN south to Template:STN. In the next phase of expansion, the track was extended south with this station opening as the new southern terminus on 1 April 1891 with the name Takase. On 1 July 1891, it became a through-station when the track was further extended to Template:STN. When the Kyushu Railway was nationalized on 1 July 1907, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station. On 12 October 1909, the station became part of the Hitoyoshi Main Line and then on 21 November 1909, part of the Kagoshima Main Line. On 10 April 1956, the station was renamed Tamana. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, JR Kyushu took over control of the station.[6][7]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2020, the station was used by an average of 1971 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), and it ranked 73rd among the busiest stations of JR Kyushu.[8]
