History

Shin-Matsuda Station opened on 1 April 1927 as a through-train stop on the Odakyū Odawara Line, and began express service on 15 October that year. Express running was suspended in November 1944 as the war worsened, local trains — which had previously run only between Shinjuku and Inada-Noborito — began serving the station from June 1945, the semi-express was added on 1 October 1946, and express service was restored on 1 October 1949. A connecting curve to JR Gotemba Line's Matsuda Station, immediately north, was completed in October 1955 and is still used by the Fujisan limited express to interchange between the two networks. A replacement station building entered service on 5 March 1980, while the original 1927 building with its gambrel roof was moved to Mukōgaoka-Yūen to house the railway museum. From 23 March 2002 selected expresses began coupling and splitting at the station. From the 17 March 2018 revision Romancecar limited expresses ceased to call here and semi-express services no longer served the station.

Notes

The place name "Matsuda" derives from the existence of "Matsurida," rice paddies whose yield funded the rites of Samuta Shrine; the station was named "Shin-Matsuda" ("New Matsuda") because a Matsuda Station already existed on the Gotemba Line.
