Aberdeen Railway: Montrose branch

Image: © Richard Webb Taken: 21 Sep 2009

A branch line once served Montrose when there were two rival railway companies here. The station and branch were closed in favour of the modern station on the North British Railway's through route. Now National Cycle Route 1 uses the trackbed to leave Montrose northwards. The building looks as if it may have been part of the railway.
