Nishi-Funabashi Station opened on 10 November 1958 on the Sōbu Main Line, requested as a petition stop to improve access to Nakayama Racecourse. A new bridge-style station entered service on 15 December 1968 with line four-tracking. On 29 March 1969 the TRTA Tōzai Line reached Nishi-Funabashi and began through-running with the JNR Sōbu (Local) Line. The Musashino Line opened here on 2 October 1978, and the first Keiyō Line section followed on 3 March 1986. JR East took over from JNR in April 1987. Through-running to the Keiyō Line began on 1 December 1988, and the Tōyō Rapid Railway opened on 27 April 1996, also through-running to the Tōzai Line from day one.

Nishi-Funabashi is the easternmost station of the Tokyo subway network, lying entirely in Chiba Prefecture, and although Sōbu Rapid Line trains all pass through without stopping, the combined three-operator daily traffic places it 16th nationwide and first in Chiba — around 620,000 passengers a day in 2023.
