British rulers were the pioneers to lay down its foundation. All of its structures are still standing but suffering from natural and human disasters. It consists of a store room, kitchen, ticket room, waiting room, an office of railway in-charge and servant quarters. This was the last station. It was constructed on the request of local person Abdullah Khan who served British Army and was awarded with Victoria Cross. When partition was in progress at that time British monarchs asked him for any gift from the state then he requested for construction orders of Bhoun Railway Station for transportation convenience of the natives of this village.
