Location

History

Nishifu Station opened on 14 March 2009, after the local landowners' redevelopment association and JR East signed a tripartite agreement with Fuchū city in March 2004. Two predecessor Nambu Railway halts — Honjuku and Nishifu — had stood nearby until they were closed on 1 April 1944 as wartime austerity measures. Nishifu briefly served Rapid trains from 9 April 2011, but the 14 March 2015 timetable revision, which extended Rapid operation to the whole Nambu Line, demoted it back to local-only service. A STATION BOOTH shared-office opened on 6 January 2022 and smart platform doors followed on 25 June 2024.

Notes

Two earlier stops on the same stretch — Honjuku and Nishifu — were closed in 1944 as wartime austerity moves, and the modern Nishifu sits between their old locations near the original Honjuku halt.
