Beppu Station has two elevated island platforms and four tracks. In the past, two detention tracks were installed between the two island-style platforms, and were used to store trains arriving at and departing from this station. Now that the detention tracks have been removed, there is a large gap between the two platforms, Platforms 2 and 3. The station has a Midori no Madoguchi staffed ticket office.{{Cite book|last=Kawashima|first=Ryōzō|script-title=ja: 図説: 日本の鉄道 四国・九州ライン 全線・全駅・全配線・第4巻 福岡エリア|year=2013 |publisher=Kodansha|isbn=9784062951630|trans-title=Japan Railways Illustrated.

The private Kyushu Railway had, by 1909, through acquisition and its own expansion, established a track from {{STN|Kokura|x}} to {{STN|Yanagigaura|x}}. The Kyushu Railway was nationalised on 1 July 1907. Japanese Government Railways (JGR), designated the track as the Hōshū Main Line on 12 October 1909 and expanded it southwards in phases, with Beppu opening as the new southern terminus on 16 July 1911. It became a through-station on 1 November 1911 when the track was extended further south to {{STN|Ōita|x}}. On 15 December 1923, the Hōshū Main Line was renamed the Nippō Main Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Kyushu.{{Teishajo|I|228-9}}{{Teishajo|II|753}}
