History
The station was built in 1910 by the Hungarian State Railways, who operated it until 1919, when Transylvania became part of Romania. After a decline in usage across the whole line and subsequent curtailing of the route in the 1960s and '90s, the station closed in 2001.
Future
Plans exist to reopen part of the line after it was protected in 2008. The local group Asociația Prietenii Mocăniței has taken on the task of restoring the route which has already restored a section of the line.[2]
