• Kintetsu Kashihara Line: Family-Kōenmae ⇄ Iwami (Nara)

Yūzaki Station opened on 21 March 1923 when the Osaka Electric Tramway extended its Unebi Line (today’s Kintetsu Kashihara Line) from Hirahata to Kashiharajingu-mae. The operator merged with the Sangu Express Railway in 1941 to form the Kansai Express Railway and again with Nankai Railway in 1944 to form Kintetsu. The station was rebuilt in December 1998, gained PiTaPa support on 1 April 2007, and became fully unstaffed on or about 1 October 2021. A second rebuild, undertaken as part of a town redevelopment project, brought the present station building into service on 5 June 2022.

The redevelopment that culminated in the new 2022 station building was shaped by a townwide "Future Session" of citizen workshops from 2016 to 2017, and was overseen by architect Yasuyuki Kawanishi — a Kawanishi native whose surname coincidentally matches the town’s name.
