Higashi Takasaki Station (東高崎駅, Higashi Takasaki-eki) is a passenger railway station located in the city of Miyakonojō, Miyazaki Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by JR Kyushu . [1] [2]
The station is served by the Kitto Line and is located 13.5 km from the starting point of the line at Miyakonojō. [3]
The station consists of a side platform serving a single track at grade. There is no station building, only a shelter on the platform for waiting passengers.
