Per quanto il percorso della linea non fosse particolarmente lungo (solamente 55 km) la Sussex Railroad fu importante per lo sviluppo della Contea del Sussex in quanto forniva una strada per le prime imprese locali come le latterie e le miniere di rame per esportare i loro prodotti. L'ultimo treno che viaggiò sulla Sussex Railroad fu il 2 ottobre 1966.
