The original station was opened on 22 September 1872 by the Ottoman Empire and later taken over by the Ottoman Anatolian Railway in 1880.[1] The station was then rebuilt in 1969 to accommodate new commuter trains which served the station until 19 February 2013, when all train service was suspended.[2] The old station (except for the historic station building) was demolished and a new platform was built. Feneryolu opened on 12 March 2019, along with the rest of the Marmaray line.[3]
The station have two tracks with an island platform and one express track on the south side for high-speed and intercity trains.[4]
