In April 1966, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) reached an agreement with the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad, the owner of the West Medway Branch, to subsidise continued service on the branch (as well as on the Needham, Dedham, and Franklin lines, also owned by the NYNH&H) within its funding district, starting on April 24; as Medway, outside the district, declined to pay for continued service to Medway and West Medway stations (the latter of which was, at the time, the western terminus of the branch), the branch was cut back to Millis, which became the new terminus, and became known as the Millis Branch instead of the West Medway Branch.

Slightly under a year later, on April 21, 1967, the Millis and Dedham branches were both abandoned due to continued poor ridership.^[2][3] By that time, the station had been used as the town hall for several years.^[4] Millis station is still extant, one of only two stations on the Millis Branch (the other being Dover) to have survived; it is now known as the Lansing Millis Memorial Railroad Station, part of the Millis Center Historic District.^[1]
