History
Kita-Kasukabe Station opened on 1 September 1966 on the Tobu Isesaki Line in what is now the city of Kasukabe, Saitama, timed to coincide with the use of the new Kasukabe Inspection Yard immediately north of the station. The Hibiya Line through-running interval was extended from Kita-Koshigaya to terminate here on the same day. A new terminating Semi-Express service to Kita-Kasukabe began in December 1991, expanding to two trains in September 1992. Station numbering TS-28 was applied with the Tobu numbering rollout on 17 March 2012, and the March 2013 timetable revision ended Section Semi-Express service in the daytime.

Notes
Despite serving only platforms 3 and 4 of its single island, Kita-Kasukabe has a remarkable five-track layout including outer pass-through tracks and depot exit lines.
