• Fukuchiyama Line: Tamba-Oyama ⇄ Minamiyashiro

Sasayamaguchi Station opened on 25 March 1899 as Sasayama Station, the original terminus of the Hankaku Railway's extension north from Sanda before the line was pushed onward to Kaibara two months later. The Hankaku Railway was nationalised in 1907, becoming part of the Fukuchiyama Line in 1912. The station was renamed Sasayamaguchi on 1 March 1944; the Sasayama Line branching from the station opened twenty days later on 21 March. Following JR West succession on 1 April 1987, the station became an overhead-concourse building on 8 February 1997, the section to Shin-Sanda was double-tracked on 8 March, and ICOCA was extended from the Osaka side in November 2003 and from the Fukuchiyama side in March 2021.

Sasayamaguchi marks the boundary between the double-tracked Osaka-side "JR Takarazuka Line" branding and the single-tracked Fukuchiyama Line proper, and every Kōnotori limited-express train calls here.
