Matsudo Station opened on December 25, 1896[1] as a station on the Nippon Railway Tsuchiura Line. It was nationalised on November 1, 1906, becoming part of the Japanese Government Railways (JGR) and the line name changed on October 12, 1909 to the Jōban Line. JGR became Japanese National Railways (JNR) after World War II. The Shin-Keisei Line began operations from April 21, 1955. The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987.
Effective April 2025, the Shin-Keisei platforms are to be absorbed by the Keisei Electric Railway as the result of a buyout.[2][3]
In the 2015 data available from Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, Matsudo → Kita Senju of the Joban (Rapid) line was one of the train segments among Tokyo's most crowded train lines during rush hour.[4]
In fiscal 2019, the JR East station was used by an average of 100,062 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), making it the 39th-busiest station operated by JR East.[5] In fiscal 2019, the Shin-Keisei Electric Railway station was used by an average of 105,704 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), making it the busiest station operated by the company.[6] The daily passenger figures (boarding passengers only) for the JR East station in previous years are as shown below.
