The timetable revised in March 2007 changed its operation setup, and this type of rapid express had disappeared because it was necessary to make a connection with a rapid express train heading for Kawaramachi at Awaji Station; instead, the Sakaisuji-Junkyu (semi-express) was introduced.
2007年3月のダイヤ改正で、淡路で快速急行河原町行きに接続する観点から消滅し、代わって堺筋準急が設定された。
