• JR Sanyo Main Line: Takatori (Hyogo) ⇄ Suma

Sumakaihinkōen Station opened on 15 March 2008 as a new infill station on JR West's San'yō Main Line (JR Kobe Line) in Suma-ku, Kobe. Construction was financed entirely by JR West rather than petitioned by the municipality, and the original plan to open simultaneously with Sakurashukugawa Station on 18 March 2007 slipped by a year because of construction delays. Only local trains stop here, served by a single island platform built on the local (electric-car) pair of tracks; the parallel tracks used by Shin-Kaisoku and freight services have no platform and run past unstopped. Station numbering JR-A67 was adopted on 17 March 2018.

From opening in 2008 until July 2014, the approaching-train chime at Sumakaihinkōen was a rearrangement of "Kamome no Suihei-san" ("Mr Seagull Sailor"), before being replaced with the JR Kobe Line's standard "Sazanami" melody.
