The line from St Budeaux to Bere Alston was opened for passenger traffic on 2 June 1890 by the Plymouth, Devonport and South Western Junction Railway (PDSWJ) as part of their line from Lydford to Devonport, which in effect was an extension of the London and South Western Railway's main line from London Waterloo station to Lydford, enabling the LSWR to reach Plymouth independently of the Great Western Railway. The branch to Gunnislake was opened by the PDSWJ on 2 March 1908.

The branch to Gunnislake was opened by the PDSWJ on 2 March 1908. The line was listed for closure in the Reshaping of British Railways Report but was kept open because the roads in the areas served were poor.
