History
The private Kitakyushu Railway had opened a track between Fukuyoshi and Hamasaki on 5 December 1923. Expanding in phases, by 15 October 1926, the line had been extended east to Hakata and west to Higashi-Karatsu. Hatae Station was opened on 1 July 1928 as an additional station on the track. When the Kitakyushu Railway was nationalized on 1 October 1937, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station and designated the line which served it as the Chikuhi Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Kyushu.[8][9]
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2016, the station was used by an average of 2,927 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), and it ranked 63rd among the busiest stations of JR Kyushu.[10]
