• Hankyū Kyoto Main Line: Tonda ⇄ Ibaraki-shi

Sōjiji Station opened on 15 April 1936 as Sōjiji-mae Station on the New Keihan Line, set up by the Keihan Electric Railway to serve a newly subdivided residential estate at Sōjiji-mae. The line was absorbed into Keihanshin Kyūkō (today's Hankyu) on 1 October 1943, and the station was renamed Sōjiji on 1 January 1948. It became part of the Hankyu Kyoto Main Line on 1 December 1949. The station is built on a slope: the Awaji-side ends of its two opposing side platforms sit on an embankment, and the West Gate concourse is on the lower level. Hankyu introduced station numbering systemwide on 21 December 2013, assigning Sōjiji the code HK-70.

Since JR West opened its own JR-Sōjiji Station on the parallel Kyoto Line in March 2018, the JR station has overtaken Hankyu's Sōjiji in daily passenger numbers — the Hankyu monopoly that had stood since 1936 came to a close.
