History
Mii Station opened on 24 December 1928 as one of the original intermediate stops on the first section of the Kyudai Main Line, a Japanese Government Railways project linking Kurume with Chikugo-Yoshii. The station, in the city of Kurume in Fukuoka Prefecture, lies 8.0 km from the Kurume terminus and is served only by local trains. Freight and parcel handling were abolished on 20 February 1971 and the station was unstaffed at the same time. With the dissolution of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR Kyushu, which still operates it. The wooden station building was demolished in 2006 and replaced with a simple waiting shelter, and SUGOCA IC-card use began on 1 December 2012.

Notes
Trains run alongside the Mizuno Fault for a short stretch just outside Mii — close enough that the line is only a few metres from the visible fissure, an unusual geological landmark for a Japanese commuter station.
