Station Layout
Higashi Totsuka Station has a single island platform with two tracks. The station buildings are built above the platforms.
The Yokosuka line and Shōnan-Shinjuku Line share the same platforms. There are another two sets of tracks to the either side of the platform. One set is used for the trough traffic of the Tōkaidō Main Line, and the other set is for non-stop freight trains.

Famous quotes containing the word station:
“How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn’t love it. The minute they arrive at the train station or get off the ferry and glimpse the wide streets and the wasteful lamps lighting them, they know they are born for it. There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves: their stronger, riskier selves.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
