History
Koyoshi Station opened on August 1, 1922 as the Tamanoike Signal Stop (玉ノ池停留場) on the Yokojō Railway. It was elevated to a full station and given its present name on October 24, 1926. The Yokojō Railway became the Japanese Government Railways (JGR) Yashima Line on September 1, 1937. The JGR became the Japan National Railway (JNR) after World War II. The Yashima Line was privatized on 1 October 1985, becoming the Yuri Kōgen Railway Chōkai Sanroku Line, at which time the station re-assumed its original name. A new station building was completed in December 2011.
