• JR Nambu Line Hamakawasaki Branch: Musashi-Shinjo ⇄ Musashi-Kosugi

Musashi-Nakahara Station opened on 9 March 1927 with the Nambu Railway's Kawasaki–Noborito section. The Nambu Railway was nationalised on 1 April 1944, the station becoming part of the Ministry of Transport and Communications' Nambu Line. Freight handling ended on 16 January 1961, and JR East took over from JNR on 1 April 1987. The down line was elevated on 27 November 1988, and on 20 December 1990 the station itself was moved 0.2 km toward Musashi-Kosugi as part of the elevation works. The station became a Rapid stop on 9 April 2011, and smart platform doors entered service in two stages on 30 June 2023 and 10 March 2025.

Although Nakahara Ward of Kawasaki takes its name from the former Nakahara town, the ward's central station is not Musashi-Nakahara but Musashi-Kosugi. The place name Nakahara did not exist around the station until Nakahara Village, the town's predecessor, was established.
