Nishitetsu Shingu Station

Traveler highlights

Nishitetsu Shingu Station is the terminus of the Nishitetsu Kaizuka Line in Shingu Town. Buses from the station forecourt connect to the ferry terminal for Ainoshima, an island known for fishing and its cats, making the station a starting point for exploring islands near Fukuoka. Opened in 1925, it was once part of the Miyajidake Line; after some sections closed in 2007, it became the terminus. Traces of those route changes can still be seen near the platforms. From local rail to island connections, the station reflects how Shingu Town links with its harbor and offshore islands.
