Nanaimo station was the original northern terminus of the E&N railway when the line entered service in 1886. By the following year the line was extended north to Wellington, which became the new terminus. The current one/two-storey stucco and wood building station building featuring a central square tower, was built in 1920 to replace an earlier station building. [1] The building is a more complex version of the CPR Standard Plan No. 9 design. The original design was intended to support commercial operations on the main floor with living quarters for railway employees on the second floor.
On March 19, 2011, Via Rail suspended service indefinitely due to poor track conditions on the line outside Nanaimo and replaced it with a bus service. Eventually, on August 12, 2011, the bus service ended and the station closed indefinitely. [2]
