[1] Aviles Station was opened in 1890, just 20 days after works on the railway connection between Villabona and San Xuan were completed by Norte.

[2][3][4] In 1922, Ferrocarriles de Carreño took advange of the location of this station to extend its narrow-gauge line, thus connecting Avilés with Gijón via Aboño.

[5] In 1941, the new Francoist regime nationalised all the Iberian gauge railways in Spain and Norte's assets into the newly formed Renfe.

[6] In 1972, the ownership the narrow-gauge section was transferred to FEVE, a government-owned company established with the objective of operating all narrow-gauge railway lines within Spain.

[7][8] In 2005, Adif became the owner of the infrastructure and the management of railway lines that were part of RENFE, which became a mere operator.
