History


Japanese Government Railways (JGR) opened what it then designated as the Miyazaki Line between Yoshimatsu and Kobayashi (then named Kobayashimachi) on 1 October 1912. In the second phase of expansion, the track was extended southeast to Tanigashira which opened as the eastern terminus on 11 May 1913. Takaharu opened on the same day as one of several intermediate stations on the new track. On 15 December 1923, the stretch of track between Yoshimatsu and Miyakonojō which included Takaharu, was designated as part of the Nippō Main Line. On 6 December 1932, the same stretch was separated out and was designated as the Kitto Line with Miyakonojō as the starting point. Freight service was discontinued in 1971 and baggage handling in 1984. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, Takaharu came under the control of JR Kyushu.
