Hachiōji is a separation station in which the Chūō main line ( Shinjuku - Shiojiri ) and the Chūō high-speed railway line (Shinjuku– Takao ) run parallel. The Yokohama line to Machida and Yokohama and the Hachikō line to Takasaki branch off here . All four lines are operated by the JR East railway company.
All express trains running on the Chūō main line stop in Hachiōji . Every day 18 pairs of trains of the Azusa ( あ ず さ ) form an hourly service from Shinjuku via Kofu and Shiojiri to Matsumoto ; individual trains run beyond these endpoints to Tokyo , Minami-Otari and Chiba . The express train Kaiji ( か い じ ) connects Shinjuku with Kōfu twelve times a day , plus two pairs of express trains Fuji Kaiyū ( 富士 回遊 ) daily from Shinjuku to Kawaguchiko . In addition, the Narita Express ( 成 田 エ ク ス プ レ verbindet ) connects Takao with Tokyo Narita Airport once a day . The traffic on the Chūō rapid transit line is very dense and consists of a complex system of express and local trains with train schedules of a few minutes. The starting points are usually Tokyo in the east and Takao and Ōtsuki in the west. Some trains run beyond Ōtsuki to Kawaguchiko. The local train Musashino ( む さ し の ) runs three times a day initially from Hachiōji to Kunitachi , reaches the Musashino line via a freight branch and runs it to Ōmiya .
On the Yokohama line, express trains run every 20 minutes from Hachiōji via Yokohama to Sakuragichō . Local transport runs every ten minutes between Hachiōji and Yokohama, with frequent changes in Higashi-Kanagawa . During rush hour, individual trains run from Hashimoto on the Sagami Line to Chigasaki . Regional trains on the Hachikō Line run every 20 to 30 minutes to Komagawa during the day , where they are in many cases connected to Kawagoe (there are no through connections to Tachikawa).
There are bus terminals on both station forecourts , which are served by several dozen lines of the companies Nishi Tokyo Bus , Keiō Dentetsu Bus and Kanagawa Chūō Kōtsū , as well as night buses and airport shuttles.

The station is in the Asahichō district on the southern edge of the city center. The facility is oriented from east to west and has 13 tracks, six of which are used for passenger traffic. These are located on three covered central platforms . While the tracks are laid continuously on the two northern platforms, they end bluntly on the southernmost platform when coming from the east . The latter is the terminus of trains on the Yokohama Line. On the southern edge of the facility, JR Freight operates a freight station with five tracks, which is mainly used for wagonload traffic . The freight station was once significantly larger: the eastern half is now used as a storage area for container transport by lorry , the tracks in this area have been removed. East of the station branches off from the line Hachikō a siding from which extends a short distance parallel to Chuo main line and a storage tank of the company Japan Oil Terminal opens.
The over the passenger station in the north spans reception building in the form of a rider train station , from which elevators and escalators leading to the platforms. To the south of the riding station is a wide pedestrian passage across the freight station. This creates a connection between the north and south of the station forecourt without having to pass platform barriers. Two more covered pedestrian bridges connect the platforms with one another. Two shopping centers are integrated into the station complex, both of which bear the name CELEO Hachiōji and are operated by a subsidiary of JR East. They include several dozen shops and restaurants. The northern one is ten stories high, the southern five stories. Several shopping centers belonging to other companies and public institutions are grouped around them.

history
On August 11, 1889, the private railway company Kōbu Tetsudō extended their Shinjuku - Tachikawa line, opened four months earlier, to Hachiōji. The former terminus station was located northeast of the current location. The state railway administration (later the Ministry of Railways ) took the line from Hachiōji via Takao to Uenohara into operation on August 1, 1901 , as well as a new train station about 150 m west of the present day. Five years later, on October 1, 1906, the Kōbu Tetsudō was nationalized . On September 23, 1908, the Yokohama Tetsudō (also nationalized on October 1, 1917) opened the section Hachiōji– Higashi-Kanagawa of the Yokohama line . The Ministry of Railways electrified the Chūō main line on December 20, 1930 and on December 10, 1931 it opened the first section of the Hachikō line between Hachiōji and Higashi-Hannō . Because of the double-track expansion of the Chūō main line, the station received its final location in 1937. From 1932 to 1938 there was a connection to the tram line of the Musashi Chūō Denki Tetsudō .
When carpet bombing of the United States Army Air Forces in the city Hachiōji on August 2, 1945, the station building burnt down. Traffic could be resumed just one day later and a temporary replacement building was completed on October 6th. The Japanese State Railways opened a new station building on April 15, 1952. However, after a quarter of a century, this no longer met the increased demands. It gave way to the new station and shopping complex Hachiōji now , which went into operation on November 1, 1983. For cost reasons, the state railway stopped checking in luggage on November 1, 1986, and on April 1, 1987, the station became the property of the new company JR East on the privatization train . After the Chūō main line and the Yokohama line had been electrified in 1930 and 1941, respectively, the Hachikō line was partially electrified in 1996. On November 11, 2010, another shopping center called CELEO Hachiōji was opened on the south side of the station . At the same time, the northern shopping center also received this name.
