Sone Station

Sone Station (曽根駅, Sone-eki, station number: HK-44) is a railway station in Toyonaka, Ōsaka Prefecture, Japan, on the Hankyu Takarazuka Line operated by the Hankyu Railway.

Lines

Since the 1970s there have been plans to build a line to Itami Airport from Sone, which would allow through service between the airport and Umeda. Although Hankyu shelved the plans in the 1980s due to capacity constraints, the plans were reportedly revived in 2017 and remain under consideration as of 2018. The Itami Airport terminal is approx. 4 km from Sone.[1][2]

Layout

2 island platforms sieving 2 tracks each are located on the second level. A storage track is located between through tracks in the north of the platforms connecting Tracks 2, 3 and 4.
