History
Kunugiyama Station opened on 21 April 1955 as a station on the Shin-Keisei Electric Railway in Kamagaya, Chiba Prefecture, and grew into the operational heart of the line: the company headquarters and the rolling-stock depot sit immediately beside the station. Lifts entered service on 21 March 2008, and the temporary station number SL09 was introduced in February 2014. On 1 April 2025 Shin-Keisei was absorbed into Keisei Electric Railway and the station became part of the rebranded Keisei Matsudo Line, with the number reissued as KS80. The line is 9.6 kilometres from its Matsudo terminus.

Notes
Trains that terminate here use a pair of crossovers on either side of the station to back into the adjoining depot in reverse — a manoeuvre worked into the everyday timetable rather than treated as a special move.
