History
Idemitsu Art Museum Station opened on 26 April 2009 as a stop on the heritage Mojikō Retro Scenic Line, operated by Heisei Chikuhō Railway in the Moji ward of Kitakyushu. The name was bought under a naming-rights scheme by the Idemitsu Sazo Memorial Museum Foundation; the planning-stage provisional name was Retro-Chūō. The station consists of a single side platform serving one track and is normally unattended, although staff are sent in busy seasons to sell tickets. It is served by the four-car Shiokaze excursion train, which runs between March and November on roughly eleven daily round trips at forty-minute intervals.
