The company played an important role in Boca Grande's early development, both by building the railroad and station and by opening a hotel and selling land.

Rail service began to diminish during the Great Depression, and later during the post-World War II period, when it closed in 1958.

[citation needed] Since 1985, the station has been a notable landmark along the Boca Grande Bike Path.
