Shin-Kawasaki Station opened on 1 October 1980, together with Higashi-Totsuka Station, as part of the so-called SM separation. It is located in Kashimada 1-chome, Saiwai-ku, Kawasaki, and is served by the Yokosuka Line and Shonan-Shinjuku Line, sitting 12.7 km from Shinagawa and 19.5 km from Tokyo. The Japanese National Railways had decided in July 1971 to build the stop next to the Shin-Tsurumi marshalling yard, and construction proceeded from March 1972 with the building cost borne entirely by local government. It joined JR East at privatisation on 1 April 1987, automatic ticket gates were installed in 1992, Suica IC service began on 18 November 2001, and the Midori-no-Madoguchi ticket office closed on 28 September 2021.

There was no place called 'Shin-Kawasaki' when the station opened; the neighbourhood acquired the name only on 15 December 2007, when parts of Ogura and Kita-Kase were redesignated under that address.
