History
The station opened as Ōsato Station (大里駅) on the Kyushu Railway on 1 April 1891. The railway was nationalized in 1907. On 1 April 1942, due to the completion of the Kanmon Railway Tunnel, the station was relocated approximately 400 meters toward Kagoshima and renamed Moji Station. At the same time, the current Mojiko Station was renamed from Moji Station to Mojiko Station. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Kyushu.
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2020, the station was used by an average of 4,876 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), and it ranked 29th among the busiest stations of JR Kyushu.[4]
Surrounding area
The station is located at the western end of Moji Ward. The area around the station is an urban area, but the center of Moji Ward is the area around Mojiko Station. Japan National Route 3 runs parallel to the railroad tracks in front of the station's south exit.
