• Kakogawa Line: Hie ⇄ Nishiwakishi

Shin-Nishiwaki Station opened on 1 October 1925 as a halt of the private Banshū-Tetsudō (Banshū Railway) between Nomura (now Nishiwakishi) and Hie. It was nationalised on 1 June 1943 when the line was absorbed into the Japanese Government Railways Kakogawa Line, and on the same day was upgraded from a halt to a station. Parcel handling ceased in 1973 and the station was unstaffed from 1986. With the privatisation of the Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 it passed to West Japan Railway Company. It now has a single ground-level side platform with no station building, and fiscal 2023 averaged only six daily boarding passengers.

Fiscal 2023 ridership averaged just six boarding passengers per day, the bulk of Nishiwaki proper sitting on the opposite bank of the Kako River.
