It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
The station served the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad. In later years it served the ACL's successor, the Seaboard Coast Line, and also Amtrak. Trains included the ''South Wind'' (Illinois Central Chicago–Miami train, running over ACL, later, SCL lines) and Amtrak's ''Floridian'' (also Chicago–Miami). The station also served a side branch of the ACL's (later, SCL) ''Champion'' originating in Montgomery, Alabama and heading northeast to New York City.<ref>{{cite journal |title=Seaboard Coast Line Railroad, Table 23 |journal=Official Guide of the Railways |publisher=National Railway Publication Company |volume=102 |issue=12 |date=May 1970}}</ref> Passenger service ended with the demise of the ''Floridian'' in 1979.
The depot building has two stories and some Mission/Spanish Revival styling. The listing included the depot building, a train platform shed, and a Railway Express Agency (REA) building.<ref name=nrhpdoc>{{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=88000609}}|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Thomasville Depot|publisher=National Park Service|author=Kenneth H.
