History
The station was built by the Hungarian State Railways in 1910 who operated it until 1919 when the region of Transylvania became part of Romania. After a decline in usage across the whole line and subsequent curtailing of the route in the 60s 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]

gollark: Check the version history on that.
gollark: I've had trouble with zinc.
