The Portland Water District purchased the Station at Sebago Lake from the Maine Central Railroad in 1935; this purchase included all of the lands fronting the Lake, including wharves and other structures at the Station.

While this photo is not marked, it is likely a view from the back of the abandoned Sebago Lake Station just before the building was removed.

The Maine Central Railroad decided to sell the property to the District due to a decline in railroad operations and use of its grounds for picnics and other recreational activities.
