History
Kyōshi opened as a temporary stop on the Nankai Railway in 1910 and was upgraded to a permanent passenger station on 11 April 1915. Wartime consolidation moved the Nankai assets to Kintetsu on 1 June 1944, and they were spun back to the new Nankai Electric Railway on 1 June 1947. Station numbering (NK42) was introduced on 1 April 2012.

Notes
Kyōshi is the southernmost station in Osaka Prefecture, has the fewest passengers of any stop on the Nankai Main Line, and has the longest gap to its neighbour on that line (4.4 km north to Misakikōen). One-day Osaka tickets are valid only as far south as Kyōshi.
