It was located along the Helsinki–Riihimäki railway, and its neighboring stations at the time of closing were Purola in the south and Jokela in the north.

The farmlands' significance for this purpose grew further in the 1960s as the FSR built a new greenhouse in Nuppulinna in 1962, where it then transferred the operations of its former garden in Hyvinkää.

This garden was closed in 2002, due to the lowering demand for its services, coinciding with the number of stations decreasing.

[2] In 2015, the Finnish Transport Agency, in a study concerning proposals for new halts on the Helsinki–Riihimäki and Kerava–Lahti sections, explored the possibility of closing the Nuppulinna and Purola stations in an effort to ease the capacity shortage on the railway, which would then help with the prospects of increasing services and the number of stops.

In response to the FTA's inquiry for statements on the results of the study, the municipalities of Tuusula and Järvenpää opposed the proposal.
