The current main station building was designed and built by architect Goar Grigoryan and Babken Sedrak Hakobyan in the late 1940s.

[1] In 1935, the First Secretary of the Communist Party of Armenia Aghasi Khanjian proposed the construction of the children's railway in Yerevan.

[2] According to the project, the railway was supposed to be extended to pass over a bridge that would be built across the Hradzan River, stretching for additional one and a half kilometers, climbing to the top of Tsitsernakaberd as a funicular.

[3] On 22 April 1936, during the subbotnik in the city park on the left bank of the Hrazdan, attended by more than 10 thousand Komsomol members, a ceremony took place, in which Khanjian and the Minister of Railways of the Armenian SSR Babken Amatuni [hy] laid the foundation stone of the main station.

[5] In April 2024, Russian "RID" holding, tasked with restoring the railway, announced its decision to abandon the project, citing the lack of cooperation from the local authorities.

Due to the lack of a second track, the train returns with its carriages facing forward.
