When I caught the train here, I was able to redeem my JR Kyushu Rail pass and get a ticket on the iconic Limited Express Sonic train to Hakata, Fukuoka. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and we were able to communicate well. They also helped me to understand where my seat was, and where I could put my oversized luggage.
Beppu Station is a great train station. Whether you're entering or leaving the great city of Beppu, you'll find everything you need here. Plus with the bus links, you'll be able to get to or from here with ease.
Also for the eki stamp hunters out there, you can find Beppu's stamp in the ticket office next...
