The goal is that freight trains would not enter the Special Capital Region of Jakarta area.

However, the 1997 Asian financial crisis caused the plan to stop halfway, and so the rail line only reached Nambo station.

It was in a dilapidated, deplorable and unkempt condition since 2013 and the entire station was full of vandalism.

At night, the station were often used as a place to hang out while enjoying the KRL and Nambo cement trains passing by.

After fulfilling all permits and carrying out various technical requirement tests, Pondok Rajeg Station was officially re-opened on October 19, 2024 by KAI Commuter through a symbolic inauguration by Indonesian Ministry of Transportation, Budi Karya Sumadi, Director General of Railways, Head of BPTJ, Mayor of Depok, and various other high-ranking officials.
