Odawara is a separation station through which two of the most important railway lines in Japan, the Tōkaidō Shinkansen and the Tōkaidō Main Line , run parallel. Both connect Tokyo with Nagoya and Osaka . The railroad company JR Central is responsible for the traffic on the Shinkansen high-speed line , JR East for those on the main line and on the Shōnan-Shinjuku line to the northern suburbs of Tokyo. Several railway lines from other companies branch off in Odawara. These are the Odawara line of the Odakyū Dentetsu to Shinjuku , the Hakone-Tozan line of the Hakone Tozan Tetsudō to Hakone-Yumoto and the Daiyūzan line of the Izuhakone Tetsudō to Daiyūzan .
On the high-speed line, Odawara is usually served twice per hour and direction by Kodama trains, which stop at all intermediate stations. This offer is supplemented by eight pairs of Hikari trains a day that skip individual intermediate stations. On the Tōkaidō main line, JR East trains run three to five times an hour between Tokyo and Atami , including the Rapid Acty express train ( 快速 ア ク テ ィ ー ). Although Ōfuna is the nominal terminus of the Shōnan-Shinjuku line, individual trains continue to run to Odawara. Together with the railway companies Izuhakone Tetsudō and Izu Kyūkō , JR East operates Odoriko high-speed trains from Tokyo via Odawara to Shuzenji and Shimoda .
The Odawara line and the valley section of the Hakone-Tozan line form an operational unit, as the two companies concerned belong to the same group. During the day, trains from Shinjuku to Odawara run every few minutes, sometimes as express trains with stops at a few intermediate stations and with romance car multiple units. About half of all trains are tied through Odawara to Hakone-Yumoto, so there is no need to change trains. On the Daiyūzan Line, trains run at a fixed frequency every twelve minutes.
There is a bus station on either side , making Odawara station an important hub for urban and regional bus transport. The eastern one is served by over two dozen lines operated by Enoden Bus , Fujikyū Shōnan Bus , Hakone Tozan Bus , Izu Hakone Bus , Kanagawa Chūō Kōtsu Bus, and Nankai Bus . The western one is mainly used for long-distance bus traffic.

The station is on the border between the districts of Sakaechō (in the east) and Shiroyama (in the west), on the edge of the city center and about half a kilometer north of Odawara Castle . The facility with a total of 21 tracks is oriented from northeast to southwest. It is divided into four parts at different altitudes, each of which is looked after by a different railway company. The operationally separate sections of the station are connected by a 16-meter-wide pedestrian passage from which elevators and escalators lead to the platforms. The passage also connects the western and eastern station forecourt without having to pass platform barriers.
To the far west is the Shinkansen section of JR Central with four tracks that are laid on a viaduct. The high-speed trains stop at two side platforms , on the two tracks in between they pass without stopping. This is followed by the ground-level section of the Odakyu Group's station, spanned by a distinctive domed roof , which is used by trains operated by Odakyū Dentetsu and Hakone Tozan Tetsudō. Its two outer tracks lie on side platforms, the two inner ones, coming from opposite directions, end bluntly on a particularly wide central platform ; In addition, there is a butt-ended siding without a platform edge. The station section of JR East includes four level tracks on two central platforms. There are also two tracks for freight traffic and two sidings. The station building with five floors above ground rises to the far east . On the second floor is the access to the terminal station of the Izuhakone Tetsudō with two tracks.
Restaurants, convenience shops , kiosks and bookshops can be found in all parts of the station, as is a tourist information center. The Odawara Lusca shopping center with around 90 shops is integrated into the reception building . It is managed by Shonan Station Building , a subsidiary of JR East. On the eastern station forecourt there is a statue depicting the general Hōjō Sōun . The underground shopping arcade HaRuNe Odawara with two dozen other shops extends below .
In the 2017 fiscal year, an average of 98,722 passengers used the station every day. Of these, 34,363 were accounted for by JR East, 11,139 by JR Central, 33,353 by Odakyū Dentetsu, 11,043 by Hakone Tozan Tetsudō and 8,824 by Izuhakone Tetsudō.

history
As a traditional castle town, Odawara has long been an important stop on the Tōkaidō , Japan's most important post and trade route. When the Tōkaidō main line was built in the 1870s and 1880s , the city firmly counted on a rail connection. However, the state railway administration led the line east of the city, on the other side of the Sakawa River (this route corresponds to today's Gotemba line ). In order not to miss the connection with modernity, a predecessor company of today's Hakone Tozan Tetsudō built a horse-drawn tram to the Kōzu train station, about six kilometers away . The opening of the first section of the Odawara tram took place on October 1, 1888, with electrification twelve years later.
Since the steep and winding detour via Gotemba increasingly turned out to be a bottleneck, the Ministry of Railways began building a new direct line from Kōzu to Numazu in 1918 . On October 21, 1920, it took the Kōzu – Odawara section into operation, with the station being opened up by tram from the start. Fourteen months later, on December 21, 1922, the Odawara – Manazuru section opened. The Great Kanto earthquake on September 1, 1923 caused severe damage to the station building, so that some of it had to be rebuilt. It was only with the opening of the Tanna Tunnel on December 1, 1934, that Odawara developed its full potential as a major express train stop on the country's most important railway line.
In the meantime, the private railway company Odakyū Dentetsu took the entire Odawara line from Shinjuku to Odawara in operation on April 1, 1927 . On June 14, 1935, the Daiyūzan line was integrated into the station after the construction of its own platform, having previously used the temporary terminus Shin-Odawara a few hundred meters away . Since 1919, the operation Hakone Tozan Tetsudo the Hakone Tozan Line to Gora . It was very popular with tourists, but in the first few years its Hakone-Yumoto valley station could only be reached via the heavily used tram line. For this reason, the railway company built a connection line from Odawara station to Hakone-Yumoto, which went into operation on October 1, 1935. Since the takeover of Hakone Tozan Tetsudō by Odakyū Dentetsu on June 1, 1948, through trains from Shinjuku to Hakone-Yumoto have been offered, which eliminates the need to change trains in Odawara. On May 31, 1956, the Hakone Tozan Tetsudō put the last remaining section of the tram down.
The Japanese State Railways opened the Tōkaidō Shinkansen between Tokyo and Shin-Osaka on October 1, 1964 , the world's first high-speed line, with the high-speed trains also stopping in Odawara from the start. In order to consolidate freight traffic in the region and at the same time relieve the station, the state railway took the Seishō freight station four kilometers to the east into operation on May 20, 1970. The underground shopping mall opened in November 1976. For cost reasons, the state railway stopped checking in luggage on November 1, 1986. As part of the privatization of the state railway, the oldest part of the station went into the possession of the new company JR East on April 1, 1987 . Cargo handling had resumed the day before, albeit on a much more modest scale than before. The Shōnan-Shinjuku line began operating on December 1, 2002. Between March 2003 and June 2005, today's station building was built.
