• JR Geibi Line: Yatsugi ⇄ Nishi-Miyoshi

Miyoshi Station opened on 1 January 1930 as Tōkaichi Station on the Geibi Railway between Yatsugi and the original Miyoshi Station, now Nishi-Miyoshi. It was renamed Bingo-Tōkaichi Station on 1 June 1933 when the eastern section was nationalised. On 1 July 1937 the remaining section was also nationalised and the unified railway became the JNR Geibi Line. The station was renamed Miyoshi on 10 December 1954 when the surrounding municipalities merged to form Miyoshi City. It served the Sankō Line from 1955 until that line's closure on 1 April 2018. With JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR West. A new station building opened on 28 February 2015. The layout comprises one side platform and one island platform with three numbered tracks plus reserve sidings.

The turntable that stood beside the station was sold to Tobu Railway in 2017 and relocated to Kinugawa-Onsen Station in Tochigi Prefecture, where it now turns the "SL Taiju" steam locomotive.
