The station was renamed Ainola on 1 June 2015 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the composer Jean Sibelius.[3][4] Ainola was his and his wife Aino's home.[5] The walk from the station to Ainola takes around 20 minutes.[4] In 2025 the station was rebuilt completely as the rail section Kytömaa-Ainola has 2 new tracks being built to help InterCity trains not be stuck behind commuter rail trains/freight/ECS.[6]
