The former Rupanyup Railway Station is historically significant, recalling the long abandoned practice of building small branch railways to serve areas between the main lines, demonstrating the important role of railways in the pre-automobile era. It is also historically significant as an example of a railway station constructed after the 'Octopus Act' of 1884.
