    The station was operational until 1971, it was part of the Dittaino-Piazza Armerina-Caltagirone railway. In Grottacalda the train carried goods and workers. In fact, it is necessary to know that, between the 17th and 18th centuries and almost until the 19th century, the mines were one of the economic pivots of the island, the sulfur was extracted to satisfy the increased demand for gunpowder.
