The station is now home to a museum operated by the Fort Kent Historical Society, dedicated to the local history of the railroad and its influence on the region.

The Fort Kent Railroad Station is located at the northeast corner of Main and Market Streets (United States Route 1 and Maine State Route 161 respectively), between Market Street to the west and the railroad track to the east.

It is a long rectangular single-story wood frame structure with a gable-on-hip roof, clapboard siding, and a concrete foundation.

The railroad's arrival had a major economic impact on the regions, enabling the shipment of its products (principally lumber and potatoes) to distant markets.

[2] Its interior has been converted into a museum space dedicated to local rail-related history, and is generally open during summer months.
