The first railway at Luxulyan was a horse-worked line from Par Harbour to Molinnis which was built by Joseph Treffry, opening on 18 May 1847.

It climbed up the side of the Luxulyan Valley on a cable-worked incline and then crossed it on the Treffry Viaduct.

This survived until 1975 but the public goods yard closed on 27 September 1964, as did the connection to the stub of the Colcerrow branch east of the station.

At the southern end of this is the car park which connects to a small lane that leads to the village's main road.

The Kings Arms pub in Luxulyan is part of the Atlantic Coast Line rail ale trail.
