History
Nishiizumi Station opened on 1 December 1934 on the Hokuriku Railroad Ishikawa Line in Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture. Freight operations were withdrawn on 1 April 1976 and the station was unstaffed on 1 July of the same year. Until freight ceased, the station served sidings to the nearby Kita-Nippon Textile mill (whose site later housed a Maruhan Kanazawa pachinko hall until 2005), as well as to Kanazawa Kanbutsu (now Kanakan), Kanta Shōji and the Sezawa Shōten warehouse; the embedded siding rails through the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries' Ishikawa Food Office warehouse were still visible in 2018. The station consists of a single side platform with a single bidirectional track and is unstaffed, located 1.0 kilometre from the line's starting point at Nomachi. Its station number is I02.
