It is served by the metropolitan railway service numbered as Line 2 on the Naples Metro.[1][2] It takes its name from Via Gianturco, in the city's industrial area.

From here, the trains passing through the railway link (now only underground line 2) could reach the lines for Cassino and Salerno. The few metropolitan trains in daily regional service (three every day) for Caserta use the line for Cassino, while those for Salerno use the line for Salerno.

The station was activated on May 12, 1927, as a simple stop, and was originally called "Via Gianturco."[3] An earlier proposal would have named the station "Pasconcello."[4]

The station has two platforms and four tracks.
