Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Matsuda Station is on the JR Central Gotemba Line in Matsuda, Kanagawa. It opened on 1 February 1889 with the Kōzu - Shizuoka section of the original Tōkaidō Main Line, which was routed via Gotemba because the direct route via Atami was then considered too difficult to build through mountainous terrain. When the Tanna Tunnel opened in December 1934 the trunk traffic shifted to the coast and the older route was redesignated the Gotemba Line. A connecting curve to Odakyū's adjacent Shin-Matsuda Station, completed in October 1955, allowed through services that today operate as the Mt. Fuji limited express. The station passed to JR Central in 1987 and JR Freight reopened it for freight in 1994.

Matsuda is one of seven stops on the present-day Gotemba Line that originally opened as Tōkaidō Main Line stations before the Tanna Tunnel diverted the main route.
