• Yodo Line: Matsuchi ⇄ Ekawasaki

Nishigahō Station opened on 26 March 1953 as a Japanese National Railways stop on the Yodo Line in what is now Shimanto City. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR Shikoku, where it is now station G35. It is the westernmost JR station within Kōchi Prefecture: the prefectural boundary with Ehime lies between Nishigahō and the next stop, Matsuchi. The unstaffed station has a single side platform with no station building — only a waiting shelter — and the platform is long despite the simple facilities.

Nishigahō is the westernmost JR station in Kōchi Prefecture — the Ehime-Kōchi border crosses the Yodo Line between Nishigahō and the next stop, Matsuchi.
