History
Higashi-Ishiguro Station opened on 10 August 1951 as a passenger-only stop on the Johana Line in what is now Nanto, Toyama Prefecture, following a petition adopted by the 59th Imperial Diet in March 1931 calling for a station to be built at Shimoyoshie between Fukuno and Fukumitsu. The station passed to JR West at the 1987 privatisation of Japanese National Railways. It is an unstaffed surface halt with a single side platform on the left as trains run toward Johana, accessed from a stairway beside the Higashi-Ishiguro level crossing; a small wooden waiting room sits on the platform. ICOCA card use is scheduled to begin on 14 March 2026.
