English: Additionally, a book asserts that the letter 'K' in 'K-Limited Express Orihime,' which directly connects it with the Katano Line, symbolizes either 'Katanoshi Station' or 'Kisaichi Station'; this is because 'K-Limited Express Orihime' isn't the through train between 'Kei' (Kyoto) and 'Han' (Osaka).
Japanese: 又交野線直通K特急「おりひめ」の「K」は「交野市・私市」の頭文字の「K」と解釈している書籍も存在する（これは京阪間直通ではないため）。
English: Having these various meanings, K-Limited Express seems to lump the inbound-train service in the morning that makes a stop at Hirakatashi Station, which constitutes a commuter limited express, together with the other train service that constitutes a rapid limited express, thus constituting one type of train in operation.
Japanese: このように複数の意味を持たせていることから、実質的には、朝上りの枚方市停車パターンの便(通勤特急に相当)とそれ以外の便(快速特急に相当)を一括りにして、ひとつの種別として運用されているものと考えられる。
English: On September 6, 2003, with the timetable revision, there was an increase in the number of stations at which the Keihan Limited Express stopped, but it was decided that some limited express services should continue the conventional operation only on weekdays (not in operation during the daytime), so these services had to be categorized as a new type of train, which is why the K-Limited Express was introduced.
Japanese: 2003年9月6日のダイヤ改正で京阪特急停車駅を追加した際、平日（昼間時を除く）に限り従来の特急停車駅で運転する特急も残すことになり、この列車には新種別を設定する必要が出て来たことから設定されたものである。
English: Accordingly, the K-Limited Express is formally publicized as a new type of train, but essentially it's a conventional train in which only its type designation has been changed.
Japanese: そのため公式にはいちおう新種別と発表されているが実質的には種別名の変更である。
English: There are examples of similarity to the K-Limited Express, such as 'Meitetsu-tokkyu' (Nagoya Railroad's rapid limited express and limited express--some cars of a limited express train are those where seat reservation is required) running on Nagoya Main Line in the section between Meitetsu Gifu Station and Toyohashi Station, or the 'Kaisoku-tokkyu Keisei Dentetsu' (Keisei Electric Railway's rapid limited express) running on the Keisei Main Line.
Japanese: 同様な例として、名鉄名古屋本線の「名鉄特急名鉄岐阜～豊橋間快速特急・特急（一部特別車)（豊橋駅〜名鉄岐阜駅間の系統）」や京成本線の「快速特急京成電鉄「快特（快速特急）」」がある。
English: Additionally, the K-Limited Express--which started operating on September 8, 2003--marked the first introduction of a new type of train in 43 years within the Keihan Electric Railway after the express introduced in March 1960.
