The station consists of four tracks and two island platforms, each serving one line. Trains of the Kyoto Line run alongside the Kobe Line and the Takarazuka Line, but do not stop at Nakatsu. Officially the tracks for Kyoto Line are treated as express tracks for Takarazuka Line.
The Kyoto Line services do not stop at this station because of the absence of any platforms on this line.
