Ōitai Station (大板井駅, Ōitai-eki) is a passenger railway station located in the city of Ogōri, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by the Amagi Railway, a third sector public-private partnership corporation.[1]
Lines
[edit]The station is served by the Amagi Railway Amagi Line and is located 4.5 km from the start of the line at Kiyama.[1] All Amagi Line trains stop at the station.[2]
Layout
[edit]The station consists of a side platform serving a single elevated track. There is no station building but the platform has a shelter for waiting passengers. Access to the platform is by means of a flight of steps. A toilet building has been built under the elevated structure. Another flight of steps near the station entrance provides access to the connecting bus stop for the Nishitetsu Express Bus. This stop is located on the Oita Expressway which is at the same level as the elevated railway track.[3][4][5]
