Shonan Shinjuku to Kamakura 2014/12/25 00:37
Hi,

I would like to check if there is any operating hours for traveling from Shinjuku to Kamakura on Shonan Shinjuku?

I plan to take the train on 730am but based on google map, they gave me an option of alighting at Yokohama (Shonan Shinjuku) and change to Yokosuka line to Kamakura.

Is this correct? Or I am still able to be on the train directly to Kamakura?

Thank you.

I have used www.hyperdia.com, and yes, it seems you do have to change at Yokohama, but on the same platform.
I find that strange, as we definitely went from Shinjuku to Kita Kamakura, and returned from Kamakura to Shinjuku, on the Shonan Shinjuku line, and did not have to change trains at all.
Perhaps others on this forum may have a better idea.

Hi,

the shonan shinjuku line MAY stop at kamakura station but not all trains. but all trains stop at the major YOKOHAMA station

try google map to find directions will show U shoran shinjuku or hyperdia . do confirm if that particular train stops at kamakura

There are some trains departing Shinjuku and go directly to Kamakura.

Thanks! I guess I would have to be careful while transiting to another train.. I hope there are English announcement on when to change the train.
