History
Azamui Station opened on 25 October 1916 when the Railway Bureau extended the Hōshū Main Line south from Yanagigaura to Saiki, adding the station as an intermediate stop on the new track in what is now Saiki City, Ōita. The Kyushu Railway predecessor track had earlier been nationalised on 1 July 1907 and designated the Hōshū Main Line on 12 October 1909; the line was renamed the Nippō Main Line on 15 December 1923. Following the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Kyushu. The unstaffed station has an island platform serving two tracks plus a siding, with a simple Japanese-style wooden waiting building linked to the platform by a footbridge.
