• Tokyu Setagaya Line: Wakabayashi (Tokyo) ⇄ Setagaya

Shōin-Jinjamae Station opened on 18 January 1925 as a stop on the Tamagawa Electric Railway. The Setagaya Line, on which the station now sits, was split off as an independent operation when the parent Tamagawa Line was abolished in 1969, and is today operated by Tōkyū. The station was given line number SG04 when station numbering was introduced in 2007.

Although the station is normally unstaffed, on entrance-examination days for nearby Kokushikan University (whose Setagaya Campus is the closest higher-education facility) staff are temporarily assigned to collect fares and handle boarding. The station serves the eponymous Shōin Shrine, dedicated to Bakumatsu-era scholar Yoshida Shōin, and the Setagaya Ward Office is reachable from here from the direction of Sangen-Jaya.
