History
Shin Yurigaoka Station was opened on June 1, 1974. A major bus terminal was completed at the station in 1986. In 2000, the Limited Express Homeway began operation, and the station became a Limited Express stop (in this case, nonstop service from Central Tokyo). In 2002 the Limited Express Support and Enoshima and Tama and Shōnan Express began operations to this station. The Support was discontinued in 2004, and Shin-Yurigaoka instead became a stop for the Hakone and Sagami services, as well as Rapid Express and Section Semi Express trains.
