Prior to the end of passenger service on the Florida East Coast Railway, Pompano Beach was a busy station, with as many as eight trains making both north and southbound stops here.

Among the passenger trains that made daily stops in Pompano Beach in 1957 were the:

East Coast Champion (Miami to New York)
Florida Special (Miami to New York)
Miamian (Miami to New York)
Havana Special (Miami to New York)
South Wind* (Miami to Chicago)
City of Miami* (Miami to Chicago)
East Coast Express (Miami to Jacksonville)
Daylight Express (Miami to Jacksonville)

All this came to a halt when the FEC was hit by a strike on January 23, 1963. The company subsequently eliminated all passenger service.

Passenger traffic was re-routed onto the Seaboard system, but Pompano Beach did not have a passenger station on those tracks.

*Together, the South Wind and City of Miami provided daily service, but ran on alternate days.
