Previously the station was only served by regional train services between West Java and Jakarta.

[2] At present the station serves as the terminal stop for Jakarta metro commuter rail Blue Line.

This increase allows Bumel trains to pick up and drop off passengers and goods at the Tjikarang railway stop.

This transportation activity causes the area around it to become crowded, as evidenced by the existence of markets, barracks, dogcart terminals, and localization.

The rail line has the status of a buffer stop and is focused on loading and unloading of goods, such as; rice, teak leaves, wood, salt, and livestock transportation.

The first phase of the renovation lasted until mid-2017 and then was inaugurated on 17 September 2017, simultaneously with the extension of the KRL Commuterline network.

This temporary demolition aims to facilitate construction activities as well as extend the platform, which allows long-distance trains (Indonesian: Kereta Api Jarak Jauh (KAJJ)) to stop at this station.

[9] Starting on 19 January 2022, the building on the north side of the station began to fully operational.
