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.

Since the suspension of regional services on the metre-gauge railways of the Peloponnese in 2011,[5] 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 a terminal station when Line P1 of the Patras Suburban Railway began operating with the extension of its routes to the town of Kato Achaia[8][9] Due to the abandonment of the adjacent old station building, Line P1 services started with the (temporary) solution of using a pre-facility which includes chemical toilets.

Service were suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic, becoming the starting point of the new Line P1 of the Suburban Railway to the town of Kato Achaia.
