Location

History

Kashima-Jingū Station opened on 20 August 1970 as a station of the Japanese National Railways Kashima Line. A freight line extending to Kita-Kashima Station (present-day Kashima Soccer Stadium Station) opened on 12 November that year. Passenger trains of the Kashima Rinkai Railway's Kashima Rinkō Line began running through to the station in 1978, but that line's passenger service was discontinued in December 1983. On 14 March 1985 the Kashima Rinkai Railway's Ōarai Kashima Line opened, and through-running to this station began. The station passed to JR East at the division and privatization of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. It was incorporated into the Tokyo metropolitan-area fare zone in 2009, and the Suica IC card became usable there on 14 March 2020. It is an elevated station with an island platform serving two tracks, and is directly managed by the Narita General Center.

Notes

Kashima-Jingū doubles as the operational divide between JR East's Kashima Line and Kashima Rinkai Railway's Ōarai-Kashima Line — every Ōarai-Kashima service terminates here, so although Kashima Soccer Stadium Station lies further down the rails, all regular passenger trains turn back at Kashima-Jingū.
