Lines
The station is served by the Kagoshima Main Line and is located 32.2 km from the start of the line at Mojikō.
Layout
The station consists of two opposed side platforms serving two tracks. There is a level crossing on the west side of the station (near the Onga River), and the station building (ticket gates) are located on both platforms 1 and 2. The north exit station building is adjacent to platform 1, and the south exit station building is adjacent to platform 2. However, during the day, the south exit is unmanned and only the automatic ticket gates are in operation. There is an underground passage within the ticket gate, and it is also possible to move between the two platforms within the ticket gate. A slope has been built from the north exit to platform 1, and an elevator has been built from the south exit to platform 2, but there are steps as there is no connection to the underground passage.
