• Kintetsu Minami-Osaka Line: Harinakano ⇄ Kawachi-Amami

Yata Station (Osaka) opened on 13 April 1923 with the Osaka Railway's Ōsaka-Tennōji (now Ōsaka-Abenobashi) - Nunose section. The station became part of Kansai Express Railway's Tennōji Line on 1 February 1943 when that company absorbed Osaka Railway, and on 1 June 1944 it joined the new Kintetsu Minami-Osaka Line through wartime consolidation. From October 1972 to February 1976 the line was raised onto a viaduct alongside the construction of Osaka's planned arterial road (now National Route 479); the down platform was elevated on 1 July 1975 and the up platform on 21 February 1976. PiTaPa service began on 1 April 2007.

Before the 1970s elevation Yata had two island platforms and four tracks, with crossings and separate ticket gates on each side, although passengers could not move between the up and down sides; the present station retains only two side platforms with a single ticket gate.
