History
Shimo-Soga Station began on 1 May 1911 as a signal stop on the Tōkaidō Main Line between Kōzu and Matsuda, was redesignated a signal station in April 1922, and opened to passenger and freight traffic as a full station on 15 May 1922. The original building was destroyed by the Great Kantō earthquake of 1 September 1923. When the Tanna Tunnel opened in December 1934, the Kōzu–Numazu segment was rebranded as the Gotemba Line, leaving Shimo-Soga on a local route. Regular freight ended in 1962 and resumed briefly via a Sumitomo Cement siding until 1998. The station passed to JR Central at the 1987 privatisation, with JR Freight holding nominal rights.
Notes
Shimo-Soga is the easternmost JR Central station on a conventional line, and the only one belonging to a Kantō-area city that is exclusively under JR Central jurisdiction.
