History


Higashi-Kanagawa Station opened on September 23, 1908,[2] as a joint use station on the Japanese Government Railways (JGR) Tōkaidō Main Line (the predecessor to JNR) and the privately owned Yokohama Railway Line (which connected Yokohama Station with Hachiōji Station. A spur line for freight operations to Umikanagawa Station (closed in 1959) was established on December 10, 1911.[citation needed] The Keihin Electric Train (the forerunner to the Keihin-Tōhoku Line) began operations from Higashi-Kanagawa from December 20, 1914. The Yokohama Railway Line was nationalized on October 1, 1917.[citation needed] With the privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the operational control of JR East.
