History

Shin-Yahashira Station opened on 2 October 1978 as a Japanese National Railways (JNR) station on the Musashino Line in Matsudo, Chiba Prefecture. The station passed to East Japan Railway Company (JR East) with the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987. Suica IC card service began on 18 November 2001. The green window ticket office closed on 31 January 2020 and station operations were contracted out the following March. The stop is built in a cut-and-cover trench so that its platforms sit effectively underground, and it shares a transfer with Keisei's Yabashira Station, although the two are operated as separate facilities reached via the surrounding commercial block.

Notes

During planning of the Tokyo Outer Ring line the station's provisional name was simply 'Yabashira' (やばしら), without the 'Shin-' prefix; the station as built is read 'Shin-Yahashira', while the adjacent Keisei stop is read 'Yabashira'.
