Tabata Station (田端駅, Tabata-eki) is a railway station in Kita, Tokyo, Japan, operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East). Tabata Station is on the Tōhoku Main Line and Yamanote Line and is served by the circular Yamanote Line trains and the local and rapid trains of the Keihin–Tōhoku Line.

Station layout

The station consists of two island platforms serving four tracks, with the Yamanote Line tracks on the inside, and Keihin-Tōhoku Line tracks on the outside, enabling cross-platform interchange between the two lines. There is a south and a north exit from the station.

Platforms

Chest-high platform edge doors were installed on the Yamanote Line platforms in January 2015, with operation commencing in February.

History

Tabata Station opened on 1 April 1896. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR East. The station was rebuilt between 2005 and August 2008.

Station numbering was introduced in 2016 with Tabata being assigned station numbers JY09 for the Yamanote line and JK34 for the Keihin-Tōhoku line.
