The station was electrified in 1955 for the start of commuter service between Sirkeci and Halkalı.[1] Soğuksu is located 25.2 km (15.7 mi) from Sirkeci Terminus, and 2.4 km (1.5 mi) from Halkalı railway station. Soğuksu was closed in 2013 due to the rehabilitation and construction of the new Marmaray line. Initially projected to go into service in 2015, the line is delayed to open in 2017.[2]
