• JR Wakayama Line: Suda ⇄ Hashimoto (Wakayama)

Shimohyōgo Station opened on 1 October 1968 on the JNR Wakayama Line, 43.2 km from the line's terminus at Ōji, serving the city of Hashimoto in Wakayama Prefecture. The 5.29 million-yen construction cost was borne entirely by the local community, making this a petitioned station. With JNR's privatisation on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR West. ICOCA became available on 14 March 2020. The station has a single side platform, lying on the left-hand side of the track as one faces Hashimoto, with no station building and only a weather shelter; it is unstaffed and administered by Hashimoto Station, and its short-distance ticket-vending machine has been removed.

Local residents paid the entire 5.29-million-yen cost of building the station in 1968, making it a citizen-funded "petition station" on JNR's Wakayama Line.
