Kashiwa Station (柏駅 Kashiwa-eki?) is a railway station in Kashiwa, Chiba, Japan, jointly operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East) and the private railway operator Tobu Railway.
Kashiwa Station is served by the JR East Joban Line from Ueno in Tokyo, and is 26.9 kilometers from the official starting point of that line at Nippori Station. It is also on a station for the radial Tobu Urban Park Line from Ōmiya in Saitama Prefecture to Funabashi in Chiba Prefecture. It lies 42.9 km from the western terminus of the Tobu Noda Line at Ōmiya.
The JR East portion of the station has a Midori no Madoguchi staffed ticket office. There are two island platforms serving four tracks, with an elevated station building located above the platforms.
The Tobu station has two bay platforms serving four tracks. All trains reverse at this station. The station building is elevated and located above the platforms. It is connected to the JR station by a concourse on the second floor.
The present-day JR East station opened on 25 December 1896. The Tobu station opened on 9 May 1911. The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987. In July 1998, the platforms for the Jōban Line were lengthened by three meters. The South Exit to the station was opened on April 8, 1999.
