History
Hatsutomi Station opened on 7 October 1949 as Kamagaya-Hatsutomi on the Shin-Keisei Electric Railway's Shin-Keisei Line. The station took its current name 'Hatsutomi' on 1 April 1955. Continuous grade-separation work along the Shin-Keisei Line saw the Matsudo-bound platform shifted to temporary track on 3 February 2013 and the Tsudanuma-bound platform on 18 May 2014, removing the in-station level crossing. The down platform was raised onto its permanent elevated alignment on 21 October 2017 and the up platform on 1 December 2019. Effective 1 April 2025 Shin-Keisei was absorbed by Keisei Electric Railway and the station became part of the renamed Keisei Matsudo Line, with its number changing from SL12 to KS77.

Notes
Hatsutomi takes its name from a Meiji-era reclamation programme that opened farmland on the old Kogane and Sakura grazing pastures and numbered the new villages in order — Hatsutomi was the first, followed by neighbours such as Futawa, Misaki, Goko and Mutsumi.
