• JR Nambu Line Hamakawasaki Branch: Yako ⇄ Kawasaki ⇄ Hatchonawate

Shitte Station opened on 9 March 1927 as a halt (Shitte-Teiryūjō) on the Nambu Railway between Kawasaki and Noborito, and was upgraded to a full station in 1929. The Nambu Branch Line opened from here on 25 March 1930, initially as freight-only. The parent Nambu Railway was nationalised on 1 April 1944, becoming part of the Government Railways and from 1949 the JNR system. A freight spur to the Shin-Tsurumi Freight Terminal was added on 1 October 1973. The station passed to JR East at JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987, automated turnstiles arrived in 1994, and Suica gates went live on 18 November 2001.

The station name comes from Shitte hamlet across the boundary in Tsurumi Ward — 'shitte' literally meaning 'land to the rear' — even though the station itself sits inside Kawasaki City.
