In 1962, TCDD converted the broad gauge railway to standard gauge and rebuilt the station, which was renamed to its current name in 1966. Due to the border closure between Turkey and Armenia, train service east of Kars was suspended in 1993 until February 2011, when TCDD returned train service to Akyaka. Akyaka station is located in the town center in the vicinity of the town post office and police station. (en)
