This small station, branch MP 5.0, owned by the Ulster & Delaware, was never that busy, as the town of Lanesville was pretty small, too. This station was five miles from the Phoenicia Station, and 33.5 miles from Kingston Point Station. This station changed little over its lifetime, and was abandoned when the New York Central took over the railroad in 1932. But it still survived after the discarding of the branches in 1940, only to be razed by fire in the 1960s.
