In 1960 the line from Larissa to Volos was converted to standard gauge and connected at Larissa with the mainline from Athens to Thessaloniki, allowing OSE to run through services to Volos from Athens and Thessaloniki.

The station is little more than a halt, with only a small brick-built building on a raised platform, however no real disabled access.
