The station was opened in
1888, when the Suzzara–Ferrara railway line was completed. It was located east of the town centre; the junction to the then projected Bologna–Verona railway line was already envisaged. On 26 October 2008, the stretch from Poggio Rusco to
San Felice sul Panaro railway station was double-tracked. A new alignment between Poggio Rusco and
Nogara railway station was inaugurated on 14 December 2008. ==Features==
