The Vartholomio – Loutra Kyllinis line was opened on June 1, 1892. Its construction coincided with the start of the exploitation of the hot springs at Loutra Kyllinis (the name means "Kyllini baths") by the SPAP, which constructed spa facilities, hotels and parks there. The line was shut down in 1969.
The line was first known as the Vartholomio–Lintzi line, as Loutra Kyllinis was previously known by the name of Lintzi.
