History
Nishi-Kitami Station opened on 1 November 1986 as the JNR Nishi-Kitami provisional halt (rinji-jōkōjō) on the Sekihoku Main Line, an unstaffed stop handling passengers only. Its provisional name before opening had been "Miwa"; the name finally chosen reflects its position west of Kitami Station. At the 1 April 1987 privatisation the halt was promoted to a regular station and passed to JR Hokkaido. It is a ground-level station with a single side platform, managed from Kitami Station, and the rapid "Kitami" service stops here.
Notes
The station's waiting room is built of bare exposed concrete.
