History.
The station opened on 30 July 2004, along with the first section of the Athens Airport–Patras railway. In 2009, with the Greek debt crisis unfolding OSE's Management was forced to reduce services across the network. Timetables were cutback, and routes closed as the government-run entity attempted to reduce overheads. Services from Athens Airport & Athens were cut back, with some ticket offices closing, reducing the reliability of services, and passenger numbers. In 2017 OSE's passenger transport sector was privatised as TrainOSE, currently, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane infrastructure, including stations, remained under the control of OSE.
Facilities.
The station has a ticket office and cafe (since closed). At platform level, the station is equipped with Dot-matrix display departure and arrival screens on the platforms for passenger information, seating, and information boards, with access to the platforms via life or escalator. Outside the station, there a limited number of parking spaces for railway users.
Services.
The station is served by lines 1, 4 and 5 of Proastiakos Athens, all of which terminate at Athens Airport.
Future.
Plans have been put forward to extend the future Line 4 of the Athens Metro to Kifisias station via the adjacent Paradeisos station after 2035.
