Kaihimmakuhari Station (海浜幕張駅, Kaihin-makuhari-eki) is a passenger railway station located in Mihama-ku, Chiba city, Chiba Prefecture, Japan, operated by the East Japan Railway Company (JR East).[1]
Kaihimmakuhari Station is served by the Keiyō Line and is the turnaround point for many local trains to and from Tokyo Station. It is also served by Musashino Line trains to and from Fuchūhommachi during rush hours. It is 43.4 kilometers (27.0 mi) from the western terminus of the Keiyō Line at Tokyo Station.
Some Uchibō Line limited express Sazanami and some Sotobō Line limited express Wakashio services stop at this station.[2] JR periodically offers additional limited express trains to Tokyo Station during major events at Makuhari Messe, such as the Tokyo Motor Show and CEATEC. [citation needed]
Kaihimmakuhari Station consists of two elevated island platforms serving four tracks.[3] The station is staffed.
