It was under the then, Madras and Southern Mahratta Railway. Present this station operates trains to Tenali and Secunderabad stations [5] In 2012–13, a survey report was submitted for new Machilipatnam–Repalle railway line. The most trains from Repalle are via Tenali Junction railway station because it was a commercial stop here.[6]
