History
Pukinmäki railway station was originally opened in June 1886 near the Pukinmäki Manor as a small stop (known as laituri in the old classification of railway stations in Finland used until 1969{{Cite book |last=Iltanen |first=Jussi |title=Radan varrella |publisher=Karttakeskus |year=2009 |isbn=978-951-593-214-3 |pages=12 |language=fi}}) for local trains that operated under the Malmi railway station.{{Cite book |last=Iltanen |first=Jussi |title=Radan varrella |publisher=Karttakeskus |isbn=978-951-593-214-3 |pages=51 |language=fi}} At first, the stop was used only in the summer, but ten years later it was in use throughout the year. In the 1900's, the areas near the stop were turned into villa properties and in 1915 a densely populated community was formed in Pukinmäki.
The first station building was completed around 1910. The second station building, designed by architect Thure Hellström, was completed in 1934. The second building was closed as a station in 1982, when a new ticket sales office and a waiting room were completed on the northern side of Ring I. The ticket sales office was closed in 2000 and the office was converted into a restaurant.
