History
Jūsō Station opened on 10 March 1910 as a stop on the Minoo-Arima Railway, the progenitor of today's Hankyu Takarazuka Line, north of the Yodogawa river crossing in Osaka. The Kobe Line was added in 1920 and, in 1921, the North Osaka Electric Railway began service from here toward Senriyama, a line that eventually became part of the Kyoto Line after passing through Keihan ownership and the 1943 Keihan–Hankyu merger. The station served as the Kyoto Main Line terminus until 1959, when through services were extended to Umeda over a new triple-track section. Station numbering arrived on 21 December 2013, designating Jūsō as HK-03.
