Newhall was built as an infill station on the busy Antelope Valley Line and opened on March 18, 2000. The official name of the station is Jan Heidt Newhall Metrolink Station after Santa Clarita's first Mayor Pro-tem.
The station is served by 28 Metrolink trains each weekday running primarily at peak hours in the peak direction of travel while weekend departures and arrivals are fairly evenly spaced throughout the day. Weekend service consists of 12 trains on both Saturday and Sunday.

Connections to San Joaquin trains to Oakland and Sacramento are provided through route 1C and 1A buses that travel to and from the Bakersfield Amtrak Station.
