The station was opened on 30 October 1855 by the Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford Railway as Greystones & Delgany.

[1] Construction of the electrification and extension of the DART services to Greystones began in 1995 and was completed in 1999.

[citation needed] DART services serve the station, as do all South Eastern Commuter (Dublin Connolly to Gorey) and Intercity (Dublin Connolly to Rosslare Europort) services.

There are two bus stops directly outside the station on Church Road, one for northbound routes and the other for southbound.

Operators serving the station include Dublin Bus with routes X1 and X2 at peak times, Go-Ahead Ireland with routes L1, L2 and L3 that link the station to the surrounding towns, Aircoach and the Finnegan Bray Night Bus.
