Train services between L'Aquila and Terni are operated by Ferrovia Centrale Umbra, a company owned by the province of Perugia.

The station was built by the Società per le Strade Ferrate Meridionali (English: Company for the Southern Railways, SFM).

On 8 December 1943, Allied planes bombed the station, claiming hundreds of civilian and military casualties.

They are a small regional composition made up of ALn 668 class railcars in a diesel version designated as the 3300, with a "mountain" gear ratio limiting its top speed to 120 kilometres per hour (75 mph).

Since 15 June 2008, the train service to Terni has been operated by Ferrovia Centrale Umbra, which has taken on the management of the Terni-L'Aquila section following the reorganization of regional rail transport.
