Higashi-Totsuka Station is served by the Shōnan-Shinjuku Line and the Yokosuka Line. It is located 36.7 km from the terminus of the Yokosuka Line at Tokyo Station. The station is located on the Tōkaidō Main Line, but trains operating on the Tōkaidō Main Line do not stop at Higashi-Totsuka.
The station consists of a single island platform with two tracks. The station buildings are built above the platforms. The station formerly had a Midori no Madoguchi staffed ticket office.
The Yokosuka and Shōnan-Shinjuku Lines share the same platforms. There are another two sets of tracks to the either side of the platform. One set is used for the through traffic of the Tōkaidō Main Line, and the other set is for non-stop freight trains.

Higashi-Totsuka Station opened as a station on the Japanese National Railways (JNR) on October 1, 1980, after local residents had petitioned the government for a railway station for over a half century. The opening coincided with the separation of the tracks for the Tōkaidō Main Line and Yokosuka Line into two separate sets of tracks from Yokohama through Ōfuna Station.[citation needed]
In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 44,389 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).[1]
