The station was originally built for Canadian National Railway[2] The station was declared a Heritage Railway Station in 1992.[3] Via Rail trains call at the Kamloops North station, not this station. The station building was restored and was previously home to a location of The Keg.[4] As of 2021, it is being remodelled as a local distillery and restaurant.[5]

The Kamloops Heritage Railway, offers special excursion steam trains at various times through the year, trains depart from the station with tickets sold from their ticket office at 5-510 Lorne St near the station.[6]
