The original Southern Pacific station opened in 1899 as Morganhill. The railroad closed the station in November 1958.[citation needed] VTA rebuilt the station for an extension to Caltrain in 1992.[2] Service between San Jose and Gilroy, including Morgan Hill station, was increased to four weekday round trips on September 25, 2023.[4]

The station will eventually be served by Amtrak when the Capitol Corridor is extended to Salinas Intermodal Transportation Center.[5]
