History
James R. Evans was the station agent from the 1870s to turn of the 20th century. Regular passenger train service for the train station ended in 1963, although shuttles from Mountain View remained until 1966. Freight service to the station continued into the 1980s.
More recently, the station building was used as a clothing consignment shop, and later as a State Farm insurance office.
