• Heisei Chikuhō Railway Itoda Line: Matsuyama (Fukuoka) ⇄ Ōyabu

Itoda Station opened on 20 October 1897 as Miyatoko Station on the private Hōshū Railway between Gotōji and Toyokuni. Hōshū merged into the Kyushu Railway in 1901, which was nationalised in 1907. A separate Itoda Station belonging to the Kinmiya Railway (later Sangyō Cement Railway) opened nearby in 1929; under the 1943 wartime takeover the two were consolidated, the older Miyatoko was renamed Itoda, and the Sangyō Cement station was absorbed. The station became unstaffed in 1984, passed to JR Kyushu at privatisation in 1987, and was transferred to the third-sector Heisei Chikuhō Railway on 1 October 1989. Today it is station HC53 on the Itoda Line.

The station building doubles as the town facility "Green Dome Itoda", designed by architect Toshihiko Kurotsuchi.
