• Meitetsu Nishio Line: Nishioguchi ⇄ Fukuichi

Nishio Station opened on 30 October 1911 as the terminus of the Nishi-San Tramway between Okazaki and the town of Nishio; the company was renamed Nishio Railway in 1912 and the line was extended onward to Heisaka in 1914 and Kira-Yoshida in 1915, making the station the junction of the Okazaki, Heisaka and Yoshida routes. Conversion from 762 mm narrow gauge to 1,067 mm and electrification followed Nishio Railway's 1926 merger with the Aichi Electric Railway. As part of that work, the station was relocated eastward to its current site on 1 October 1928. The Aichi Electric Railway merged with the Meigi Railway in 1935 to form Nagoya Railroad (Meitetsu). A fourth-generation station building opened in December 1973 on the ground floor of a new four-storey station complex, and the tracks were elevated in July 1989, after which the station's facilities moved into new premises beneath the viaduct.

The replaced 1925 station building was donated to the town of Nishio under the relocation contract and served as the Nishio Police Station from 1930 onward.
