History edit
The station opened, together with the rest of the Gernika-Pedernales extension of the Amorebieta-Gernika line, on 15 March 1893. The original station building was demolished in the 1990s due to its bad condition, and replaced by a shelter.[2] In 2018, the station was renovated in order to improve its accessibility.[3]
Services edit
The station is served by Euskotren Trena line E4. It runs every 30 minutes (in each direction) during weekdays, and every hour during weekends.[4]
