History

The station opened as the northern terminus of the Pedernales-Bermeo extension of the Amorebieta-Pedernales line on 16 August 1955. A spur track was added in 1960 to serve freight traffic from the harbor. It was removed later that decade due to lack of use. A new access to the harbor was built in 1996. It was in use until 1998, when increased passenger traffic put an end to freight trains running on the line.
