The station is served by Thameslink trains on the Sutton Loop Line.

The station opened in 1894 as Tooting Junction, replacing an earlier station of the same name, which was located a few hundred yards west and had opened in 1868.

Prior to the introduction of Thameslink services it was served by the London Bridge loop trains via Wimbledon.

Two lifts offering step-free access to the two platforms will be added in 2024.

[2] All services at Tooting are operated by Thameslink using Class 700 EMUs.
