Although Higashi-muko Station (the old Higashi-mukomachi Station) and Nishi-muko Station (the old Nishi-mukomachi Station) of the Hankyu Kyoto Line, which are also located in Muko City, were given their current names when old Mukomachi was upgraded to Muko City in October 1972, Mukomachi Station was not renamed despite the upgrade to city status.
同じ向日市内にある阪急京都線の東向日駅（旧・東向日町駅）・西向日駅（旧・西向日町駅）は1972年10月の市制施行とともに現在の駅名に改称されたが、向日町駅は市制を施行しても改称されなかった。
