On 1 January 1971, the station and most of Greek rail infrastructure were transferred to the Hellenic Railways Organisation S.A., a state-owned corporation.

Freight traffic declined sharply when the state-imposed monopoly of OSE for the transport of agricultural products and fertilisers ended in the early 1990s.

In 2005 operations from the station were suspended due to the reconstruction works of the OSE railway network in the region.

Since the suspension of regional services on the metre-gauge railways of the Peloponnese in 2011,[7] the station is used only by local Proastiakos trains which currently connect the city with the suburbs of Rio and Kaminia.

It reopened on 29 February 2020 as an intermediate station when Line 2 of the Patras Suburban Railway began operating with the extension of its routes to the town of Kato Achaia[5][6] Service were suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic, becoming the starting point of the new Line 2 of the Suburban Railway to the town of Kato Achaia.
