Kurume-Kōkōmae Station (久留米高校前駅, Kurume-Kōkōmae-eki) is a passenger railway station located in the city of Kurume, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by JR Kyushu. The station name refers to the nearby Kurume High School.[1][2]
Lines
The station is served by the Kyudai Main Line and is located 3.4 km from the starting point of the line at Kurume.[3] Only local trains on the line stop at the station.
Layout
The station consists of a side platform serving a single track. The station building is a modern concrete structure which houses a waiting room, automatic ticket vending machine, a Sugoca charge machine, a Sugoca reader and a staffed ticket window.[2][3][4]
