The train station served trains from Mérida to Coatzacoalcos and from Yucatán to Veracruz, respectively.[1]
History
The station was built on the Coatzacoalcos–Merida Line. The Ferrocarriles Nacionales de México began planning the station's construction in July 1934.[1]
Construction work began at the end of 1935 using the line located from Sarabia, on the Ferrocarril del Istmo de Tehuantepec. When the general study of the route was completed, the Sarabia junction was abandoned, adopting the Port of Coatzacoalcos as the western terminal of the Southeastern Railway.[1]
