The old ruins still remain 200 m away from the current station as a cabin room.

The lines at the station were electrified on 29 November 1979, with the electrification of the Chennai Central–Tiruvallur section.

Its function is to control the Vyasarpadi Jeeva station and railway lines connected to it.

On 29 April 2009, a suburban EMU train from Chennai Central's Moore Market Suburban terminal, hijacked by an unidentified man, rammed with a stationary goods train at the Vyasarpadi Jeeva railway station, killing four passengers and injuring 11 others.

A major portion of the platform at the station, foot over-bridge and railway track were damaged due to the impact of the collision.
