Lutxana is a station of line 1 of Metro Bilbao, also served by the Lutxana-Sondika shuttle operated by Euskotren Trena.

The Cercanías Bilbao commuter railway network (operated by Renfe) also has a Lutxana station on its C2/C3 line, but they are not at the same location or even in the same municipality – there is a relatively short distance of about 700 metres (770 yd) between them as the crow flies, but they are situated on opposite banks of the Estuary of Bilbao (the 'other' Lutxana is part of Barakaldo).

[4] In 1947 both railway companies were merged into Ferrocarriles y Transportes Suburbanos , FTS for short, which started the work of electrification of both lines as well as the first renovation of the station.

As a result, trains on the Txorierri line had to be provisionally rerouted from Lutxana to Lezama from November 2015 to April 2017.

[citation needed] The station is also served on weekdays by an hourly shuttle service (line E3a) connecting Lutxana with Zangroiz and Sondika, operated by Euskotren.
