As of 2015, the line is the third-busiest line in the KA Commuter system, after red line and yellow line.[3][4]
Before 28 May 2022, there used to be two routes operating between Jakarta Kota and Bekasi. One serves via Manggarai and other one via Pasar Senen.[5] Line and stations between Jakarta Kota and Manggarai were shared with the Jakarta Kota–Bogor line.
KAI Commuter announced in 21 May 2022 that the line will be renamed as Cikarang Loop Line with new abbreviation (C) by 28 May 2022, as part of Manggarai station upgrade. The line ceased operating to Jakarta Kota. Trains from Bekasi or Cikarang arriving at Jatinegara now continue through city loop previously used by Loop Line, clockwise or counterclockwise, and then return to Bekasi or Cikarang. Several trains end their journey at Angke or Kampung Bandan without looping.[6] In response to passenger congestion at Manggarai, a feeder service serving Manggarai-Angke/Kampung Bandan portion of the line was introduced on 30 May 2022 to minimise waiting time.[7]
