History
Nishi-Nojiri Station opened on 23 December 1931 on the Sangi Railway's Sangi Line, in Inabe, Mie Prefecture. The station lies 25.3 kilometres from the line's terminus at Kintetsu-Tomida. It is the only station on the Sangi Line that is unstaffed throughout the day, and it has no automatic ticket vending machine: boarding passengers must take a non-ticket boarding certificate and alighting passengers deposit their tickets or fare in a collection box. The single side platform serves bi-directional traffic, set among fields on the front side and a hillside on the rear.
