Despite the fact that the Tallinn-Keila railway was opened in 1870, a stopping point at this place appeared only in 1928. In the early years of its existence, the stop was called "America." In the past, there was a small train station building in Lilleküla that was demolished in 1998. [one]
In 2012, the old platforms were dismantled, and new, lower ones were installed in their place. Pedestrian tunnels were also built. [2]
