History
Shin-Nishi-Kanazawa Station opened on 22 June 1915 as Shin-Nonoichi Station, when the Ishikawa Railway opened its line from here to Tsurugi, in what is today Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture. It passed to Kanazawa Electric Tramway when that company absorbed Ishikawa Railway on 1 May 1923, and was renamed Shin-Nishi-Kanazawa Station on 1 October 1925. With the creation of Hokuriku Railroad on 13 October 1943 it became part of that operator's Ishikawa Line. Freight operations ended on 1 April 1976, and routine station duties were contracted out on 1 October 1989. It sits beside Nishi-Kanazawa Station, operated by IR Ishikawa Railway since 16 March 2024.
Notes
Kenmin Sport Recreation Plaza Kanazawa, an ice skating rink, stands near the station, whose single island platform serves two tracks.
