History

Sohara Station was opened on April 5, 1914 as a station of the Hokusei Railway, which became the Hokusei Electric Railway on June 27, 1934. Through a series of mergers, the line became part of the Kintetsu group on April 1, 1965. A new station building was completed in September 1992. On April 1, 2003 the Sangi Railway was spun out of Kintetsu as an independent company.
