Station numbering was introduced in 2016 with Nishi-Nippori being assigned station numbers JY08 for the Yamanote line and JK33 for the Keihin-Tōhoku line. Numbering was expanded to the Nippori–Toneri Liner platforms in November 2017 with the station receiving station number NT02. ==Passenger statistics==
