Currently, trains in that direction use the main Cross-City Line and the Warszawa Centralna railway station.

It is located on the "Northern Line" that runs between Central Warsaw and the city's Żoliborz district to the north.

During the withdrawal of Russian troops from Warsaw in August 1915, the station was demolished, along with the bridge to which it led.

As such, it was the main location through which people expelled in the aftermath of the Polish 1968 political crisis left Poland.

The events of 1968 are now commemorated by a stone tablet on the eastern wall of the building with the inscription by Henryk Grynberg Here they left more than they had.
