The JR East station first opened as {{nihongo|Haramachida Station|原町田駅}} on 23 September 1908. The Odakyu station opened on 1 April 1927 as {{Nihongo|Shin-Haramachida Station| 新原町田駅||}}, which was renamed Machida Station on 11 April 1976, and the current station building and Odakyu Department Store opened on 23 September 1976. The JR station was moved {{Convert|0.4|km|mi|abbr=on}} towards Hachiōji and also renamed to Machida on 1 April 1980 to reduce the walking distance between it and the Odakyu station from {{Convert|700|m|ft|abbr=on}} to {{Convert|300|m|ft|abbr=on}}, to facilitate interchange.{{cite book |script-title=ja: 停車場変遷大辞典 国鉄・JR編 |trans-title=Station Transition Directory - JNR/JR|publisher = JTB | editor1-last = Ishino| editor1-first = Tetsu| year = 1998 |location = Japan |pages = 77–78|isbn = 4-533-02980-9}}
