On the Yokohama Line, there are three express trains every hour on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. and on weekends between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. , which run from Hachiōji to Higashi-Kanagawa and then via Yokohama to Sakuragichō . The offer is supplemented by local trains between Hachiōji and Higashi-Kanagawa and between Hashimoto and Sakuragichō (three times an hour each), which results in six connections per hour. During the rest of the day, there are no express trains and are replaced by local trains (five per hour in the evening, up to 15 during rush hour), with the majority being tied through to Sakuragichō (in individual cases to Ōfuna ).

The bus stop in front of the southern exit is served by two bus lines each from the Yokohama City Traffic Office and the Kanagawa Chūō Kōtsū company. Three other lines of the city traffic office and a fast bus from Sugisaki Kanko Bus run from the northern entrance.

history

The private railway company Yokohama Tetsudō ( 横 浜 鉄 道 ) opened the station on September 23, 1908, together with the entire Yokohama line from Higashi-Kanagawa to Hachiōji . After the Railway Office of the Cabinet (later the Ministry of Railways ) carried out operations from 1910 on the basis of a leasing agreement , it took over the route entirely on April 1, 1917. On January 17, 1960, the Japanese State Railways stopped handling goods. Nagatsuta had been an ordinary through station for over half a century . This changed on April 1, 1966 with the extension of the Den'entoshi line from Mizonokuchi to this point by the Tōkyū Dentetsu . Initially, due to delays in the construction of a pedestrian overpass, this route was single-track and only a temporary side platform was available.

On April 28, 1967, the Kodomonokuni line opened . Your starting point was a tongue platform at the western end of the platform of the Den'entoshi line . With the extension of the Den'entoshi line to Tsukushino on April 1, 1968, the railway junction was complete, but the capacity soon no longer met demand. After almost four years of construction, the station section of the Tōkyū Dentetsu had four tracks on two platforms from March 1977, plus a separate platform for the Kodomonokuni and a passenger tunnel . As part of the privatization of the state railway, the older part of the station went into the possession of the new company JR East on April 1, 1987 ; JR Freight had already resumed freight traffic the day before . On August 1, 1997, the newly founded Yokohama Kōsoku Tetsudō took over the operation of the Kodomonokuni line. As part of an urban development project , the station was rebuilt from 2012 to 2015 (including installing lifts and redesigning the station forecourt).
