History
Nishihino Station was opened on October 14, 1912 as a station on the Mie Tramway Line, which became the Mie Railway in 1916. On February 11, 1944, due to mergers, the station came under the ownership of
Sanco. In November 1944, the station was rebuilt 100 meters closer towards present-day Kintetsu Yokkaichi Station. On February 1, 1964 the Railway division of Sanco split off and formed a separate company, the Mie Electric Railway, which merged with Kintetsu on April 1, 1965.[5] On September 25, 1974, the Kintetsu Hachiōji Line ceased operations from Hinaga Station to its terminus at Ise-Hachiōji Station
after portions of the track were washed away by heavy rains. On April 1, 1976 operations resumed as far as Nishihino Station, but the remainder of the line remains closed with no plans to resume operations.
