There used to be a request railway stop called Pelto whistle-stop on the eastbound line towards Espoo and Helsinki, but this stop was closed in 1995 due to lack of use. There also used to be a little halt, Mankki, on the westbound line towards Kirkkonummi. This halt was closed in 2016 due to low passenger amounts.
