The Sōtetsu Shin-Yokohama Line is a commuter line operated by Sotetsu between Nishiya Station on the Sōtetsu Main Line to Hazawa Yokohama Kokudai Station near the Yokohama-Hazawa Station on the JR Tōkaido Freight Line. From Hazawa Yokohama Kokudai the line is planned to be extended to Shin-Yokohama Station. Sōtetsu has put its company names as a formal part of the line names, which is a first for the company.

Shin-Yokohama Station will be jointly operated by Sōtetsu and Tōkyū. This is the first case for both operators to have a station with direct connections to the Shinkansen.
